i'm sure jordan is looking for a much better 60' anything more than 2.0 would be a shame in the AWD
Yeah, hoping for a 1.6x. My best recorded 60 was a 1.95 last time out, I could've been in the 12's with a 1.6x. To my credit, my first run was such that I had to have pulled at least a 1.8, but I didn't get a slip for that run so I'm stuck with the crappy 1.9. There were reasons for the crappiness that I have fixed, along with track inexperience that could be fixed with practice, but I've decided that "better safe than sorry" is in order, and I now have a 5500 stutter and much better tires, along with more power. If a 5500 stutter doesn't give me full boost on the line on this 14b, I'll jump it to 6k and throw in antilag, if I have to. I have an awd car, gotta make the most of the launch part of the race. I know that 44pirate hit at least one 1.5x on a skinnier size of the tires I have, but I don't think my setup has the power to pull that off no matter how crazy I go on the launch techniques.
