i think i figured it out. 2.74 final drive, thats why your 1/8 trap is so high without slicks. you probably spin through third like most bosted tc's. but when you finally catch at whatever rpm in third, your going to be going at a higher mph. your third gear probably revs out to mid 90s huh?

I dont know how you guys do it, but drag racing to me is just so boring. My quickest of the day was like a 14.6 or so, I would post timeslips but im lazy and dont really care. My 60' sucked though, more than likely because im still running nearly 3 degrees of camber.

Oh and yes the box is just that quick, dont worry, there are more and more left speechless everyday ha

im sure its quick, i was just wondering how the 1/8 mile mph was so high. it makes sense now. im willing to bet that it will drop down to the 88-90mph range with slicks.

Yeah, -3 degrees camber definitely going to hurt people like you and I at the drag strip. I'm not running that much camber though. More like -1.8.

I run about 2.7 negative in the front, and I still get them to roll over that far in autocross, however around a road course I did notice that much was not necessary. Its fine though, the car was never set up and never will be set up for drag racing. Im sure if I went back with no camber and practiced the 60' then I could be in the 13's, but I dont care enough lol.

Yea I hear ya bro. 11, 12, 13 secs of fun is cool and all. But you really can't beat 20min sessions of non stop action on a road course all the while chasing down Vipers, Z06, Stangs ect....and just watching the other Guy continue to GE smaller and smaller in the rear view.
