Sorry for the shakyness. My GF was a bad Camera Girl

One was a win, one was a loss. Love the way my exhaust sounds and the look of the front of the car as it goes down the strip:

Work on that 60", and you could see quite an improvement. I remember my first time out I was 2.4, and 2.5 60's. Just takes some practice. Good runs.

Whats the best way to improve on that? I also noticed my reaction times were a bit high.

Is that a Auto or a 5 Speed?

Launch it better to improve that 60'. Also try to time the light to get a good R/T. Try once the 3rd light lights up to start moving. Might take you a few times to get it down but it will help out your 60'.

Don't worry about reaction times. You could sit there for 30 secs, and still get the same time. The timer starts when your cars tires break the timing light. As for lowering you 60's. I am in the same boat, but I am trying diffrent launch RPM's, diffrent tire presures in the rear. Just something to start with.

I was launching around 3k rpms. Would you suggest higher? I am new to drag

You can try to go higher. I am not sure of the stall speed on the 6'ers though.
