Was looking for your opinion and/or comparisons on first times ran at a local 1/8 mile track based on my mods. Mods are an 05 Copperhead with Paxton S/C, Corsa Exhaust, 3:55 gears, Alluminum flywheel, short throw shifter, PS2's set to 24psi, and Racelogic traction control (T/C) unit. SCT tuned and dyno'd 682rwhp and 630 TQ.
With the traction control set to @21% I still kept slightly spinning, but believe the unit slowed me down. I trapped a few runs of around 92mph with times averaging 8.3. The 60 ft times were around 2.1. I thought this was kind of slow.
Frustrated, I turned off the T/C and ran a best:
60 ft - 1.98
1/8 - 7.92 at 98 mph
I kept spinning the wheels 3/4 down the track. The track didn't seem well prepped after noticing AWD vehicles spinning as well. But still, do these times seem slow and any suggestions other than slicks?
