pacoflyer Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 If the rain stays away I will be attempting Bradenton drag strip tommorow, but I am curious the best method people use for foot braking the RPM's up for best launch. Last Time gave it maximum hold which was like 2100 ish, but some people are saying 1800 is best? My 60' last time was 2.17 and 14.06 at 99.29. I now have an exhaust so I hope to grab 13s but we will see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Hawk Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 1700/1900ish works the best for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tss Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 1700/1900ish works the best for me. Ditto. TC off...... All power accessories off...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulford8 Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 Did you go today? How did it go? I try different RPMs but dont get much of a difference. I get her up in the 1800-1900 range and on the last yellow I let it rip! The exhaust will make a huge difference. Gives just a little power but I think it lets your turbos spool faster. Mine gained me .17 and that was in hotter weather then my previous trip. Hope you ran your new personal best! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pacoflyer Posted November 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 Did like 1800-1900 and it was a faster than full lock. Killed a 10' Camaro SS by a .1 Guess he was sleeping at the tree lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulford8 Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 What was the temp? Nice run BTW! You dipped under 14, AND you hit 100 MPH. Not trying to tempt you but... you are mid-low 13s with a tune. Just sayin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacoflyer Posted November 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 Temp was 70F Close to sea level. Humidity was going up since the only rain cloud in the state decided to visit... Probably 80% Humidity. Can't decided on a tune next, or wait till i've acquired a few more odds and ends like springs, thermo, and maybe downpipes <-big IF since $$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tss Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 Nice runs. Also forgot to mention, if you have the magical sport/grade assist icon on your car, throw it in M as well. Definitely increases my 0 to 60 times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tss Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 I have no empirical data other than my fastest run ever was in "M". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
