Where am I lacking?
Wednesday, November 15, 2006 7:30 PM
Can you guys tell me where my times are sub par and what I can do them to improve Driving wise and small mods. I dont want buy a fast car or go turbo or engine swap or anything liek that. Just maybe get theses tires and speed up shifts and maybe roller rockers. those would be good suggestions.
here is the best slip I have

You're lacking an engine.

You aren't getting much faster than that period without a swap or nitrious/boost. Most OHVs are lucky to get near 15, are you willing to spend a 600 bucks on bolt ons to make your car 1/2 second faster? Don't bother just save your money for a real modification. Other than that you have a decent 60', you could probabally do a little better than that and get down to mid 16s if you try.

Yeah I am planning on going bosst or something of that nature in the near future I jsut wanted to know if there is anything I can improve on for right now. Just making sure my driving and things are up to par before I go boost or something like boost.

Thanks for the feedback

does a 2.2 even have enough power to get a better 60'?
