Yeah, the launch felt weak, I actually bogged it some off the line. I'm waiting on my Type II intake manifold to get back from extrude hone, then I'll go back and try for some better launches/ et's.

Took the Type I autotragic 92 LS coupe to the track a couple weeks ago.

Mods: weapon R, stromung, chip, 18" chrome ice metal 888s (heavy).
Had a 2/3 full tank of 87 octane (yuck). Was about 90 degrees, hot and humid.

Roughly:
Best ET: 15.8
Best MPH: 88.89mph
Best 60': 2.49

Torque braking did not help to decrease times, neither did manual shifting. Only shift worth making for me manually was from 1, to D3 at 6600rpm.

This was pretty disappointing. Auto's suck and Legends are fat and slow lol.

what's your elevation? I'm hoping to run at least high 15s.

i have no idea what he elevation is...

the pressure might be near 13 though ..

I am running in a couple weeks hopefully in chicago and i should be running faster.

I am shooting for 15.5@90.?

i got some changes thats why and the track should be cooler.

Kinda not too good especially with a type 2. There's hope for you though as it seems that you are not getting a good launch judging by your 60ft.

That is a crappy 60', but look at his location Altitude is a killer. Thats actually not too bad of a time for colorado.
