i mean he could know a thing or two, i sure don't. i mean i think posts 6,9, and 10 are useful
I wouldn't take the advice of anyone running a 12.6 with a 60' that still begins with a 2

If you blow the tires off then try launching at a lower rpm. Don't be discouraged as it
will take a handful of runs to find the sweet spot


I generally launch between 4-5k, depending on track condition.. drag the clutch enough to find the balance between keeping your RPMs up and your tires planted.. It will take quite a few passes, and might not even be possible on street tires during the summer months.. High track temp during the day, and high humidity at night don't make for good traction. Try it on a cooler, partly cloudy day when track temp is optimal
