Originally posted by fresh95 Didn't wheel hop at all in the burnout box, just launching. Any who, my best time was 13.73 @ 110.9mph I'm sure with more practice, my et's will go down. Like I said, this was my first time at the track. It was fun, and the dsm got me home. So, no complaints here.

Excellent. Looks like you got a good workable unit. As for wheel hop on the launch but not in the box, not unusual. The box has less friction because of the water being put down. Nice start on the times. What are your launch times? I suspect that you will probably gain there. What is your suspension set-up (as well as tires, wheels, air pressure etc.)? Do you have a upper strut bar installed? Oh yeah, what's your power level?

Not sure how much power I'm making, I've never dyno'd the car yet. See above post for the basics of my setup. No, I don't have a strut bar. But I would like to get one. As far as wheels/tires I have 17x8 rims with 215/45 tires. Suspension wise, I use the tokico hp blue struts with sprint 2" lowering springs. I used a variety of air pressures, and I saw a definite improvement the lower I went. My reaction times varied, but on the 13.7 run I had a .041 R/T. I'm sure once I get rid of the wheel hop and practice launching some more I will see my times go down. That and maybe some slick
