86?!? typo right?

i ran a quicker 1/8mi but trapped more than 10mph below that. even if you meant 76 would beat me by almost two miles

But clearly, our cars are overall to serve quite a different purpose. Can't just compare speed, cause then otherwise I would've just gotten an evo X instead.

nice work... much better!



FINALLY someone listens to me

WOW that's the best 8th mile I've seen now I think... if I could have pulled an 8.3... I might have hit 13.6... or low 13.7's

i did my best launch today. i hold in the clutch in until 6k and letted go, slowly letting go. the car got a quick jump off the line. slowly release the clutch and then stepped on the gas alittle harder.

well since you've got a clutch I doubt my advice would work for you.

In the AT, if you minimize heat build up , you maximize launch.
