stop being disappointed. you are not going to become and expert drag racer over night. it takes patience and practice.
what were your 60 foot times? mile per hour?
thats not that bad for a bone stock car man.
RIP silver car. You will be missed.
Ive been drag racing for years but my mph was 85 and my 60 ft was 2.3 and ran a 9.74 in the 8th i was just hoping for 15s makes me sad lol
I Love My J ♡
Sorry just woke up lol my 8th was 10.4 the 9.74 was my 594 et

I ran a 16.3 with a 2.25 60ft in a 2200 with bolt ons. You should be able to break 15s. I could have with practice I think.

If i had tires i know i could but anything below 2500 was a pansy launch and anything higher onte preped serfice was wheel hop like a bitch lol

I deff need motor mounts and stickyer tires to launch harder my one pass i launched at 3000 and wheel hopped soo hard my wipers came on lol

A stock 5spd z24 with a good launch should be close to the 15.7 range, based on everything I have seen around here.
Reality hits you hard, bro.
- Your not-so-local, untrained, uncertified, backyard mechanic. But my @!#$ runs
Well next year ill have motor mounts bfg kdw2s and suspension set up and im fabbing my adapter at work for my m62 so next year will be fun

Low 16s is normal. High 15s if your a GREAT driver and have a well maintained car... with a manual.

ugh :/ didnt think of that man tires were at full pressure 44psi.... now i feel dumb lol suprised my buddy jeff didnt say nothing to me that night we been drag racing togreather for years

Make sure you drag the clutch out cause wheel hop kills diffs. Keep going to the track 15s easy doable stock.
Well the track i go to here in ohio is closed now and by spring it wont be stock any more so shooting for a strong stock 1/4 time is out the window unfourtionatly :/

I feel like I need to mention that your sig is WAY too huge man.

I tried
i made it as small as i could ima have to get on one of those web sites and make it smaller

Yeah not adjusting tire reassure is one of the biggest mistakes I see people make.
I think with a lower tire pressure you would have gotten a better launch resulting in a better time.

I completely agree man i feel soo stupid. But i was so nurvus of wheel hop that it just wasnt a thought
