ok then it's driver error....

i think that car has possible high 12's in it....

based on the mods i think you are right on with the launch rpm....

it good to see someone launching a car in the correct rpm range...

keep going its only going to get better......

i dont think you can get 12s out of 101 mph trap speed.

in theory 101 mph = 13.1

but if the 60's are lower .....

i think the car could get in the high 12's.......

Keep your front tires at 35, drop the back to 32psi and make sure you don't run on a full tank of gas. I recommend showing up to the track with between a 1/4 - 1/3 tank of gas depending on how many runs you're going to do. In case it slips your mind, remove everything from the inside of your car that doesn't need to be there (IE spare tire, jack, random stuff in your trunk/glovebox/console, subwoofers etc).

Also, drain/flush all of the coolant out of the radiator and engine block then refill with distilled water and a bottle of Royal Purple's "Purple Ice", NO ANTI-FREEZE. I run only distilled water in my cooling system when I race but if you're nervous about your cooling system, the Purple Ice is the way to go. Water displaces heat faster than coolant and causes less drag on your water pump.

Will this purple ice work like anti freeze and keep the water from freezing? Never heard of it...

No it won't, it only acts as a cooling/lube agent.

I think that's rather optimistic. A 101mph trap speed should yield more like a 13.5 ET.
