Well then you had better hope this thread ends up providing you with some divine knowledge as far as the 60' goes or I may be reporting a stalled Evo at Thompson Wednesday night.

Diff get a better 60 ft u should be doing 12.4 and blow with pump gas. Race gas its all up 2 the driver Might be able to hit high 11s with the correct tuning and driver.

Anyone know how to host a video? I have a vid of me running 13.234 in my bone stock Evo doing a 1.7 60 foot.

Oh a little launching advice... I'd FLOOR it, sending my revs up to about 6500, then I'd bounce it several times off of 6500 real quick, and then rapidly pull my foot off the clutch, not quite dumping it, but almost.

BTW, Wicked Evo we have almost the exact same setup. With the exception that my sled is tuned. I (when lucky) bang off 1.6-1.7 60's and have gone 12.3 @107. Get a tune and practice launching and your in bidness.
