What are you guys 60 foots?

ON my T2 I have 235/45/17 Michelin Pilot mxx3's, with tokico premiums. Also a Bonez stage 2 clutch, and the best 60 foot I can get is a 2.24 I have tried all kinds of launches and still spin the tires through 1st and 2nd, then chirp 3rd and 4th! Usually I rev it to around 4K, slip the clutch out, put it in a little then slip it out. What am I doing wrong? What are you guys 60's?

2.0 with Yokohama's and with the BF'sDrag radials the same. Didn't have enough power down below to get better times with the drag radials. Don't do a burn out with your tires and avoid the water box. Play with your tire pressure. Could just be your tires. Nittos suck by the way.

I don't slip the clutch. It's too much work and really takes a toll on your clutch. The TII tranny is a strong one and unless you continuosly rev it to redline and dump it, then it should be ok. The number depends on your traction and the track really so what works at one place, won't work somewhere else.....Practice. Start at 4k and go from there. On my last car, with the BF's i got 1.89 I've haven't been able since to match that time.
