Post Your 1/4 Mile Times

[Mr.Negative]

agreed, I was amazed on the improvement with my tyres and they aren't even decent ones at that! so yeah, just some new soft rubber would defo see you better times.

A decent clutch would have seen me better times but in honesty the first run didn't seem to slip too much (that was my best run), it did stink of clutch though after so would have been slipping slightly even then.

With a decent clutch i think it would of been 4 very close runs, but the main thing is your cons rods held up well..

Tyres make all the difference.. Drop the pressures too.

Last year I had very good grip, I launched in 2nd,feathered the throttle to keep the spin down, then into 3rd flat out it gripped.. Was just lacking in power last year lol

Its funny though i felt on the day that the left lane was the worst lane but its where i did my 2 fastest times..

I was running my low rear spring and passenger seat at PVS think I would of done a 13.2 or .3 if I'd put my high springs in and removed the passenger seat.
