I've been having problems with my 60fts for years now...last time I ran I was talking about it to a total stranger and he mentioned maybe having someone else drive the car...so he was basically saying it could be the driver's problem...which is ME...hit me kind of hard but then I thought about it later and maybe I am doing something wrong...I use a Stageright transbrake so here's how I launch:
1) After burnout put into 2nd gear...I do this because I have ratchet shifter and if I leave it in Drive I've made the mistake of only clicking the shifter once thinking I'm in 1st when I'm actually in 2nd...very embarassing when I build boost and the car pushes through the lights...
2) Pull up to the lights and prestage
3) I have one foot on brake so I start to build a little boost and bring up the RPMs
4) Creep forward slowly and light second bulb
5) As soon as I see the first green light I mash the pedal to the floor
6) When I see the desired amount of boost...usually 8-10 PSI I slam the shifter forward and go
...I then shift to 3rd manually...so to those that have transbrakes does it sound like I'm doing anythign wrong...anything I could change to get better 60fts?...now I know my reaction times suck and at this point I really don't care so please no advice on how to better that...
