Awesome job, congrats.
My ass was puckered at 6250 when I let the clutch go, I have to grow some more balls to hit it at 6500 but will do!!
I lost 0.04 on the 60 from a 6k launch to 6250, so maybe 6500 (another 250rpm) will get me to 1.60x.
Frank, I got my 11.89 with MT ETs at 15 lbs, adjustable shocks set to 7 (out of 12), no front swaybar, rear seat out and spare out, and dumped the clutch at 6500, shifting at the same point. 4.30 gears. AND, that was with a bad 3650 5sp trans. Still got 1.4-1.5 60fts like clockwork.
I've since got a rebuilt (and strengthened) 3650 with 26 spline input shaft, and new RAM Powergrip HD clutch. Haven't been to the track lately but looks like I shit chasing my tail, so I need to get this spring and get another tenth or two knocked off.
Congrats on a very nice time!
Very nice!!! Got that little 3V hooking good and moving hard!
I had to look it up though and Englishtown NJ at 3:15pm on 11/8 was -462 DA. Congrats on the great weather too! LOL!
Damn that's nutty 60's! I can only hope lol i will try a 6500 dump next time out and see how that goes.
I can't go lower than 17 psi on my tires with my setup or it smashes the tires and bounces the rim off the ground on launch.
I was dead hooking at 6k though so the 18psi is working for me, I was actually trying to dial out some grip so my car doesn't bog, that's when I loosened the rear shocks and struts one click and went up to 6250 on the launch and got that 1.64
thanks man! yea it was good racing weather for sure.

Still stock clutch? What rpm are you shifting at? My car is set up similar but my suspension isn't as nice. If I can squeak out 12.30's I'd be happy. Just picked up a set of 15X8 race stars with 26X11.5X15 Hoosier QTP's.
