tire pressure is a big factor, too much or too little isnt good. with a better 60' 13.5 is easy

Yeap, he has really good traps. I was on 17lbs air pressure on my winter treads pulling 2.4s and some lucky 2.3s with 'ole dad.


Drop lower on tire psi, launch at higher rpms. Just do what I say.

put your tires in vacuum and you won't believe how fast you go.

theres a couple of things you can do. updgrade your front end bushings. get a stiffer spring/shock combo. filled motor mounts or solid mounts if your brave enough.
