wow, good mph,i just cant seem to get a good 60' or any mph for all the work i have done. it might just be time to take it to another tunner!!!

 

The ONLY thing a tuner has to do with 60 foot is Torque.

A stock lightning makes anough torque to get decent 60 foot times with a good driver and a good track

The MPH isa diff problem all together

Doug

 

remember 99 and 00 have 3.55 gears so they MPH better.

 

"The MPH isa diff problem all together"

yea i knowmy mph is only 103-104. I bring it up on the converter to about 2300 and let it rip...when you guys are pullin these good 60' times your NOT SPINING AT ALL right? OH and my truck is a 00 w/3.55's

 

Please tell me you have an aftermarket convertor if your leaving at 2300 rpms..............if not then that's your whole problem.

If you have a stock convertor try leaving at 900 rpms or so.........and report back to us

Man thats slow for what you got done. We have pretty much the same mods almost.

first off those It 24's are to cold for what your doing. It22's at most. I run Tr6's most of the time and then BR7's when i want the juice on. Even if you where spinning off the line your just going to MPH more in the long run. I have zero traction issues with my truck and it just hooks and goes no problem. Maybe the track your going to have *****ty prep and maybe your just not lowering the pressure on your slicks enough or your not heating them up enough.

Take those E.T. streets down to about 12 psi before you do your burnout, then they will be around 14 to 15 psi when your ready. Heat them up really good too, do a burnout up to about 80mph or so for a good 5 seconds atleast. then just get your RPM's up and take off like a bat out of hell.

 

I am always at e-town or atco NJ. So you think my MPH is down cause the tires are spining one or two rotations? Dont get me wrong, it spins for a spilt secound then leaves hard,but I still get I get low 1.8's.

 

Yup, this is true.....many witnesses to it too. Couldnt believe it myself. Don also pulled a 1.71 60 I believe on f1's on his truck making a 12.0 pass. The guy can drive, unlike me.....hehe.

 

Whatja put a gallon of moose juice (VHT) on the tires and heat them with a blow torch first? Crazy glue applied to the track?

Seriously...at what track was this at because I want to go there. E-town sucks for traction most of the time and sucks for the attitudes of the people working there all of the time.

 

this must have been when he only had the built lower and not the heads, cams, kb and other goodies... right??

unless u guys do sumthin to your track that noone knows about...

 

I was only at English town ONCE but the traction was bad.. I was told they dont treat the track so the kids in the rice rockets dont break half shafts.

 

I pulled a 1.60 on a stock convertor with 28" Hooisers, with a 114 mph

 

1.824 on F1s at Atco. 26 psi.
