On my 13.4 run I launched at about 800 revs now that doesnt seem like allot to me now if I launched at say 1300 does anybody think my time will go down is it possible to get down stock to say a 13.2??

What was your 60ft time?

It will all depend on wheel spin. I would think a minimum of .1 with a higher launch RPM if the wheel spin remained the same as your 13.40.

Well there was minimal to no wheel spin and I have a set of dr's but i dunno if that would help.

Put the DR's on and stall it up until it starts creeping. It should be worth something.

Has anyone every started spinning at the line??? Is that a common occurance because thats probably whats going to happen.

Not spinning after launch but like during preload.

Yes. I would put the DRs on as it would still be stock and try launching at the highest the brakes will allow.

Launch as high as you can without spinning badly. I think my 60' was right around yours when I left a little above idle. I increased it a few hundred rpms and the car left solidly to a 1.96 60'. Play around with it a bit.
