:On street tires ( Dunlop SP8000 )
:When I did this pass I had alot of stuff done to my car ( engine wise ) Turbos, injectors, intercoolers, exhaust, manifolds,POPS etc. The suspension was done as well but not necessarily for 1/4 mile runs.
:Were you on slicks?

You can not run anything decent on street tires. First you need to put the car on the dyno and make sure it really is making the power you need. Then you go to the track with some really sticky tires with as much sidewall as possible(no 18" wheels). Then you learn to launch hard and bring those 60' down.

My run was pretty shitty with a 2.1 60', I was trying to build boost off the line and screwed it up. Next time I'll go prepared so they can't kick me off the track.
