drag radials!!!! and suspension

are you taking raised suspension to fit drag radials under the car, or lowered suspension? stock suspension is better for drag racing than a set of coil overs.

WTF are you smoking?

Your reaction time is the time it takes from when the green light lights up, and when you break the first beam.

Your reaction time, is all about how QUICKLY you react to the green coming on. If you had come to the SAU NSW drag day we held not long back, Sydney Dragway officials even explained this.

What can quite majorly effect your ET is your 60 Foot time. This is the time it takes for you to travel the first 60 feet of the track. 0.1 of a saving here can be 0.2 of a saving at the top end of the track.

For your ET, your reaction time means NOTHING.

baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahaha, you might want to read some of the earlier posts in the thread next time to stop yourself looking silly.

No raised suspension..ye NEW standard stuff is better than circuit coil overs...but anyone semi serious about it doesnt have standard springs and shocks in the back

Previous launch was a 4100RPM drop, this time i'm thinking release the clutch before the friction point while giving gas just before the car starts to move(hand brake or something to stop it from going forward) then slipping (or trying to ) the clutch out? I'm all for suggestions guys.

if you weren't loading the car up on the handbrake last time then definitely do it next time. doesn't do the clutch much good but it will give you the best launch. test it out tomorrow on the road and you will notice the difference.

Just make sure the handbrake is fully disengaged!!

Seen rear brakes on fire through the traps due to people leaving it half on.

One of those drift button things will be your friend

Tried it today, soon as the clutch is fully released it still chirps a few times but not as bad as before. Took off a fair whack faster though, kinda like stalling an Auto up.
