First time on 1/4 mile

I think tires make the biggest difference. I had to take off right off idle, and couldn't shift fast or else I'd be all over the place. I got 275's potenza rear tires now and I still burn out all first and second but not as bad the stock pirellis

The right tire combo will help a lot. If you try to do a high rpm launch on street tries you are just going to spin like crazy. I seem to have the most success doing a 2500rpm launch and feathering the crud out of the clutch to keep the most traction and the engine rpms turning I was able to squeak out a 12.9 @ 112 so far which was on street tires and my first outing to the 1/4 track.

Practice makes perfect.
