Nice run! If I may it seems to me from the video you should warm up the tires a gear higher and really warm them up! what was your 60 on that run, as everything looked real good but that loose traction on the launch. Either way Congrats on an impressive run!!

not bad..... more heat in the tires I'd agree, 2nd gear burnout for 50-55mph on the burnout for 4-5 seconds.

with a 119 trap car should have 111.7-11.9s in it IMHO

post the slip if you have it handy

Nice looking car, you get some traction and you will be in the 11`s easily. Your 119 trap speed tells me ,you have a better ET coming soon.

Montreal Qc,
Trap speed can be deceiving when you spin off the line.

On a 1.62 60' I ran an 11.427 @ 119.98 at E-Town

2nd gear burnout should help a lot.

why change? IMHO unless your forced to shift to 5th ( and you shouldnt be based on your trap) the 26" tire will give you more gear and better launch. Get some more seat time with them, do the 2nd gear burnout, get some heat in them and go for it with a nice 4500+ rpm clutch drop. You should be able, IMO, to get 1.6x-1.7x 60s from those tires, shit if I can pull 1.68-1.70 60s with a 26.4" 265/40/18, you can at least equal that will some practice. :2cents:
