no mike something is wrong. Look at the traps of under 90mph. I had traps around a consistant low 90's and that i think should be a low 14 to maybe high 14. But traps that low wont get into 13's.

And bruno just so you know the best R/T is .500, and has nothing to do with you 1/4 mile time. The two biggest factors are gonna be your 60 ft and you shifting. like mike said that 60ft should be around a 1.8. What rpm are you launching at and are you just dumping it or riding off it a bit.
im holding a rev at around 5-6 and im riding off a bit . but someone told me last night i should rev up and down to build boost 0_o?
If you have a 2 step rev limiter setup at 5-6k then that is fine. If not your stock limiter is at like 7500 you dont want to do that. Reving up and down doesnt help build boost either
yha i dont have a 2-step, now what do you think I SHOULD do? One awd owner to another.
hold the RPMs at 6k when the lights say green. You come off the clutch at a steady pace. you want to make sure you slip it a little bit
deng, sounds complicated, so i pull of enough so that it catches, then floor and release?

Hold the gas so the RPMS are steady at 6k. when it goes green you start coming off the clutch at a steady pace while flooring the gas at teh same time. If you come off the clutch to fast you will either spin your fronts a little your do a little bunny hop. If you go to slow off the clutch you will tear the clutch apart cause you burn it up.

Here is 2 videos of my car with it was only bolt ons. one I am fluttering the gas peddle and one I keep it steady but listend to the clutch slip when I take off that is how you want to do it

depends on your driving skills. We need a video to see if your traps are that low because you shift slow. But your traps are pointing to only bin in the 14s and that is all. I trapped 114.7MPH and ran a 12.3 with a 1.84 60ft. that trap is pointing toward 12.0s but I wasnt close. So obviously my shifting was slow as *****

Im no pro. But I can def powershift the car which I was not doing on the track. So yea it looked like I couldnt shift. I tried to powershift on run and I bogged off the launch and ended up pull the shifter so hard it popped out of 3rd gear. all that and it still ran a 13.3 lol.

BTW I am not a huge Halo3 fan anymore. I got bored of it already. CO4 is good. Rock band is good too

Yea on my car i trapped at 93mph and i got a 14.5 w/ a 2.1 60ft. So im thinking if you can get below a 2.0 60ft you should probably be a low 14
