There was one run where I launched way too low on the rpms and I bogged. That may have been that run. The timeslips aren't in the car, and I can't find them buried in the mound of paper that is my desk Meh.

Ok, I found the slips. I'll move the drag discussion over to the appropriate forum

How often are you hard on your car? Only when you get onto the highway which seems to be the case with most CEGers(no offense). But it seems that the people that are running the best times are the people that have a lot of experience behind the wheel of their car.. I'm not saying my times couldn't possibly improve, say if I power shifted every gear, but I ran a 14.49 @ 96mph with a 2.13 60' time on street tires. Granted I have a lightened flywheel, Spec Clutch and Quaife, I still pulled low 2.2 60' times STOCK. I don't see the whether killing your 60' times as much as it effects top end. If you were doing a 2.2-2.3 60' times and still running those #'s, Id say it's either whether or terrible shifting.

I agree with this, because my first 3 times at the track I was doing terrible. But my forth time I pulled this off R/T .536
60 2.283
330 6.407
1/8 9.822
MPH 72.00
1000 12.729
1/4 15.214
MPH 89.33

And I just bought my 04 SRT-4 and I ran 14.7 @ 96, 14.6 @ 97, 14.5 @ 97. But I believe with practice I will improve.
