  • 60' questions

    I just wanna know what kind of 60 foot times i should be seeing on street tires with an M5 and 3.73 gears in my 96 maro. I launch at 2 grand and dump the clutch. it bogs everytime and i get 2.2xx 60's so i know thats what i need to work on. im gonna try to launch higher and feather the clutch a little. i just wanna know where i should be.

    2.0?

    What kind of tires?

    Brand?
    Size?
    Temp rating?
    Traction rating?
    Tire psi?

    I'd probably be launching at 3000... then go for 3500.

    What rear suspension you have?

      i launch at around 2200-2500 on my street tires w/my 3.73's head/cam car and the best ive had is a 2.03...you dont wanna bog teh car off the line, thats probably killing some ET right there, let it spin a little to get the engine RPM's up quicker...

        Lol I want a 2.2xx 60' when I bog , that would make my day. Of course I haven't bogged since suspension and headers.

            You definitely need to launch it higher you should be able to cut 2.1s with that setup or better.
