60FT times with a 5spd
Just interested in some of your 60ft times with a factory 5spd. Also with what tires and at what rpm are you launching.
thanks

I've heard of people cutting as low as 1.35 60 foots on slicks and as high as 2.7 on street tires
All with the factory transmission.
I used to cut 1.8x on Nitto drag radials with 15psi of tire pressure and a nice fat burnout and minimal mods.

i took a look in the drag times section and it looks like most are doing 2.0 to 2.3 not to many under the 2.0. SPOautos, when you cut the 1.8x did you leave under any amount of boost or just using a stutter box?

Nothing like that.....I just played with the patal making the rpms go up and down between 4-5K and when it hit green I floored it and let off the clutch. You have to be running some sticky *** tires to do that.
I do a burnout till I can see smoke at my side window. When I pulled up to the line I could actually hear the tires sticking to the pavement.
Also, this was on the stock clutch haha. I havent launched my car in forever now that it has power and I'm non seq which causes the need for a high rpm launch...just worried I'll snap the diff

i run consistant 1.7's on my daily driven nitto 555r's. 14-16psi depending on track condition and just a little clutch drop for a burnout. i can't heat the tires up because of my wheel hop. a little clutch action will help get it lower. i pulled 2.0 out of some dryrotted yokohama s306's.

1.9 on kumho supras as well... they were bald as **** and I have no idea how the hell I pulled it off. I used some heavy throttle modulation, but then after the first 60' I actually tried to floor it and it spun

On my old cym with et streets, 18lbs on a t78 I ran a 1.59 60ft on stock tranny, quaife dif, mazdaspeed ppf, and a osgicken twin plate. Launch at 6500 after a nice tire warm up.

12at, i was just curious if anyone is using a retard launch controller to build boost at the tree. I used mine a week ago and maybe had 2lbs, but ive got some maps to change hopefully getting me in the 10lb range at the light. I did notice it came out of the hole alot smoother than when i had just rev it up and dumped the clutch, this could change though with more pressure. All in all im looking for the best 60 i could achieve without serious damage or chassic and suspension work.

I'm still waiting for my solid diff bushings from the group buy. Hows the cars ride with these installed?
