one of Josh's clutches...
I would say even before the whole "launch" part...staging without stalling would be a feat in itself.
I dont think I could do that...but then again im not a world class driver either.

I watched Alex make his first pass..... he spun pretty bad.
Considering that this was his first time out in a while.... and a drastically different car, he did pretty damn good.
The mph shows the true potential. His car will never be a super 1/4 mile king.... it is a road race car... very difficult to 1/4 mile race and get super low 60's etc.
Don't worry alex, you did quite fine first time out - keep it up.

Nice times, keep practicing, launching our cars does take some time to learn. And that MPH is killer. Start saving for a 12 bolt. I use Nitto DRs and launch easy to try the save the rear, same deal, 2.1 60s rolling into it off the line. But both times I broke it, it was down track on the 1-2 or 2-3 shifts.
Go do some bracket racing! My old setup I was running 13.0 @ 109. People will think they have you covered at the 1000' mark and back off, then you go tearing past them the last 100'!

The price to drive it will equal the cost of a Dana S60, Moser 12-Bolt, or Strange 9"

I just wanted to make sure it wasn't a slouch in a straight line 
Once I knock off a sub 12 second or faster time slip I'll be happy and have it out of my system, but now I've got the bug to obtain those times.

If you wanna knock off a sub 12 second slip, your gonna need tires and some prayers (for the 10 bolt).

back in december of 05' I ran a 12.97 @ 110 mph in my 98 m6 with a lid/catback new clutch and 17" street tires, full weight. how come your times are slower? your mph is a lil higher but timewise, its slower. dont get much seat time at the track?
