I try leaving off my 2 step at even 2000 rpm and I spin. (must be poorly prepped track) and when I leave off the clutch at an idle my quickest 60' was last night at 2.039

not necessarily.. 60ft times have a lot of factors, try launching at a higher rpm

IMO 25 to 30 psi in the tires and depending on how much bite the track has start at 3500 rpm and work you're way up or down from there,also are you leaving on or off the bottle?

im leaving off the bottle then when i get up to about 2800 i get on it.. i wonder if i should try to leave on it but i always get so scared of it puddling or redlining becasue i dont have a window switch..

yeah and you also have nitrous so what difference does that make?

you probably have as much rwhp as me so your 60' ft should be better

and yes i know my 2.2 could be improved.

What do you have in the way of suspension?

And a person on foot could cut a better 60' than that
