Launch Question

Here is the deal I never go to a track it is to far. But me and some freinds have a tazzo and we run against each others times on a back road outside of town. My best time is 14.03 101.4 2.29 60 foot. Anyway here is my question I think I can get in the 13's consistently if I could lower my 60 foot and hit it more frequntly. My f1's are more than 1/2 gone. And when I launch like I think the engine wants to I break loose and when I feather it or baby it my 60 foots are horrible.

The question is what mod will help my 60 the most ie... Tires shocks traction control? Or just more practice?

Thanks for anyone who replys.

Get some Nitto's for the back and a set of traction bars(any company). When you are out racing, lower the back tire pressure and raise the front pressure. There's your traction.

Practice the One Two Method.

Punch it hard and quick BUT ONLY LIKE 1/8-1/4 Throttle.
This will throw all the power to the rear, then within a split second afterwards, put that sucker through the floor boards.

I have dam near bald F-1's and got (2) 1.9 60's at the track this weekend using that method
