yeah we get alot of runs most nights here because there is only around 20 to 25 cars most meets. some times up to 18 or 20 runs. so there is lots of time to try out different luanches and different shift points.

my cars has a 'sweetspot' of wheel spin for the quickets luanch, taking first and second to just befor redline and third to about 500rpm befor the redline.


smoke rubber you car seem to be making a fair amount of power for a GLI engine with those mods. to get that sort of trap speed is some to be proud of

your trap speed is up there enough that you should manage a very low 15 if you get your launches right

yeah its a bit of a freak.
it's no supercar, but for a pretty stocko car its got some go.

at the drags here it's usually packed to the sh%thouse.
i got 6 runs in that night, the 4th was the quickest, and it was 32 degrees!
i'll probably run again on the 21st.

Chef Just cause you choose to run a hairdryer.. looking at N/A times there are some pretty fast 6's here, add a blower and $$$ and without being stupid (ie neons and crap) you can pretty much only go faster..

that being said..

will I go faster if I put stickers on my car of brands I would like to associate myself with but cannot afford?

Shopping lists are always good, that way when people are envious that you beat them, they know how to make their cars faster ;)

My list would be short though :(
