I shift early due to I'm a dumbA$$.. 1st-2nd 7000+rpms, 2nd-3rd 6500-6900 rpms, 3rd-4th 7000+rpms... my last run I had a 1.7 60 ft but I shifted early on 2nd to 3rd, could of made a lower time..

I start Swing shift today.. 3pm- midnight.. I dont think I'll have time for the meets again.. but I'll be tryin to switch my Sched.. and for sure I'll be off for race days... but I wont be running this Thurs.. MM is what I'm saving my clutch for and when IE brings in my juice (VP 109)
Jon, I would like to get those tires from you.. the stock ones.. why dont I just give you my wheel & $40 and you just give me the wheel & tire??its just less work for me. I have to put it on and balance it..

When I launched for the 13s.. I F'up really bad.. the 1st time tires wouldn't grip and missed 2nd.. 2nd time Tires caught grip but not at the right rpms and I Bogged!..
As far as ur driving style u do need to shift a lil above 7000 rpm with your set-up and the 3-4 shift is most crucial for great times. Cams push ur power to the top end and above 6500 rpm there is power.
Also Smoggy used to just dump the stock clutch when he raced at the track and his clutch lasted 25 k + miles with several drag launches. FWIW I have over 100 launches on my Cusco Twin and it still is holding power for some reason.

Oh I guess I thought $$$ grew on Trees?? But Still trying to figure out to go with Cusco or Exedy.. ? If Cusco can handle IE's monster.. then I'm leaning towards that one.. I'm still going to run the Next MM with my current clutch... as long as I take car of it. like i usually do.. it should last..
