Looks like your shifting that car 5 ft before the 60 ft clock. You may have a little to much 1st gear in it to acomplish what you are looking to do. What ET are you running? what kind of 8th time and MPH are you running. That car looks like fun to drive.

Those 2 passes were a 9.51 and 9.53 back to back.......regardless , no matter WHAT I've done in the past it wont sixty like I want.......at 3000lbs and leaf springs I'm beginning to think thats about where it ends........
also at a 3.05 low and 5.86 I would think the gears are pretty close.
