Improving 1/4 mile time for ralliart?

What are some ways you guys use to get good times for the ralliart? I went to the track for the first time and got 13.7 and i feel like my car can do much better. It was a little hot so, mid-high 70s. Just looking for some tips for when i go next time. Obviously next time i plan on taking out the seats and not have a passenger haha

Dont bother taking out your seats its not gonna change your times that much at all. What was your 60'. Are u shifting ur self or do u have it auto. Are you launch ur car? What method are u using if so and what rpm?

my 60' was 2.049 and i left it in auto sport mode, ASC off. I set up at the line and i pumped the gas to around 3k rpm or a little under. I didnt have a lot of time cause the lights would start going down the tree really fast since it was a open test n tune so they were going pretty fast.

i ran 4 times, 14.3 14.3 14.0 13.7

Don't worry Matt, we'll go before the end of the season and get that worked out. I'm trying to find a good day for everyone to do an "end-of-season" type meet and race at either Byron or GLD and we can get you moving a little quicker then.

Remember the time doesn't start until you move, not when the light goes green. Take your time in getting the launch right.

Well the thing is, do you have the boost pill and tune? Or just your listed mods? I too have a 13.2 1/4 time with pill and tune only. I added a catback and now currently am at 13.0. Im going back with the X IC, HFC and V2.6, so hopefully a 12.9 with a good launch lol..

Get that 60' time to 1.8-1.9 man
