Watching the vids does it seem to start to over rev before I shift? The delay timer is set to 40 milliseconds. Maybe I need to raise the timer?

Best of luck to you, But lil advise. Just lift 1-2 learn to do it fast thats how i do it, then i flat shift 2-3,3-4. If you can't block it out of your head to not lift your right foot (It kinda seems that way in the video) Just drive the car the way you know how normal and worry about getting a great 60'

thank you.


GREAT F N NEWS

so as i said earlier i had Ivey increase the timer on the NLTS from 40ms to 100ms. while me and my awesome girlfriend where on are way back from the bon fire i said babe. i have to try the new no lift setup and i need to do it in 1st gear to 2nd. she said great. make me sick again. ''on are way to buschurs we did a NLTS from 2 to 4 and she got sick'.

anyways i told her babe if you don't want me to i wont. she said just do it and lets get this over with. i told her if i miss it will be scary so just relax. anyways i come to a stop and i put the car in 1st. i start rolling and then i floor it. at about 8K RPM i shifted BUT i semi lifted and what not BUT it also went in gear so i got back on it. holy **** that def makes the car faster. she says to me OK i am sick. i said babe it didn't work. i kinda lifted so i don't know if i should do it again. i totally love my girlfriend. she turns to me shuts the radio off and says damn it Dan. if your going to do it commit to the shift and do it. man the **** up and stop being such a p%^$y. she said it so aggressively. i immediately slowed back down and did it. 1st to 2nd 2nd to 3rd 3rd to 4th all no lifted and holy crap. the car was sideways and just crazy. she then turns to me and says ok now im going to throw up. HAHAHAHAHAH sorry for laughing babe but thank you so much for telling me what i needed to here. what a great supporter i have.

soooooooooooooooooo tomorrow is the autocross which i will do but im taking it easy. then Sunday its racing and i sure hope i can pull this off again. what an amazing weekend so far.

Thanks. I literally just made it. 9.998 @ 149.9 with a 1.68 60 foot. I had a lot of no lift shift issues so to enjoy the event I shut it off and did my usual crap. I know for a fact I can do better. 80% of my launchs and 60 foot times are better then this. So I think I can clip off a 9.8 pretty easy. Which I'm going to try to do. Ha. I have issues I know.

Anyways I will have a hole new thread up tomorrow with vids and info of the good times and bad times while at the shotout. I just got home soi am pretty shot woke up at 6am to wash the car and get my girl breakfast. I left the track at 615ish and got home at 330. I'm so tired.

I can't believe I now drive a 9 second street car. Now I need to drive a mid 9 second street car.

Here we go again. Hahaha.

Thank you everyone for all the support and help.

Once you get all the kinks worked out, the car will go deep in the 9's. Almost parachute time too. Congrats Dan.
