I’m not comfortable doing this on a public road…no mater how deserted.
It's easy- you stay comfortable you and I'll remain comfortable as me while on a secondary no access public road. It's all good.

Although I would like to see my results on a prepped and sticky track. I'm confident the numbers would be significantly better.

Keep in mind guys, With the conditions DA being the same, Your 60-130 times will be slowing on a prepped track from a dig vs. from a 40-45 mph starting roll on a long stretch.

So if you want the best / quickest 60-130, always do them from a rolling start.

I believe the answer is Fulton County.

LOL

He was mainly joking around since my vid showed a sign that said, "Fulton County".

It was a stretch of hwy with walls on both sides over a bridge at around 1-2am on a wknd day with very little traffic.

Like I said above, your 60-130 will be quicker from a rolling start vs. a dig at a track.

$35 at our locale. Run as many times as you can or want depending on the amount of people that show up.

Interesting, I never would have considered that. Guess I was thinking about 1/4mile stats being improved on a sticky track vs open road pavement.

I wouldn't even consider a dig- 60-130 valid... defeats the whole purpose lol. It should always be from a minimum roll of 40-45

Yes, for ET's the sticky track is what you want. However, It goes under the reasoning that when you get a Good STICK launch and don't spin, your MPH trap speed suffers. The higher MPH traps come from when you DO spin a bit but get a slower 60 ft. You have LESS "time" to accelerate when you Stick the launch and get a good 60 ft. When you spin, you have more "time" during the run to actually build "speed".

So same goes for the 60-130, you want that inertia of the vehicle to help with the "Speed" to get through that 60-130 distance as "quick" as possible.

Agreed... For the reason's I mentioned above.

I'll also run 60-130 in NORMAL mode, Sports, Sports Plus and Sports Plus with sports response button pushed to see what the differences are.
