Default What's the Best way to Lowering 60ft times?

What's the best way to lowering 60ft times.

I was thinking adding tubular LCAs, upper CA, and LCA relocation brackets. Along with a good set of 295'.

Question is installing lower control arms, upper control arms and the relocation brackets an easy job? Is it a do it your selfer or should I get a shop to install?

Ultimately I'm looking for advice on what to do to get faster 60ft times at the track.

You could also do osme work with you springs and shocks to aid weight transfer.

All the other things you mentioned are good to.

With your improved traction, you could also upgrade to a 1 piece driveshaft (Aluminum or carbon fiber) and a light weight fly wheel with a better gripping clutch. This will help you driveline some up quicker as well, along with reducing weight for better acceleration past 60'

You could relocate your battery to the trunk to help place more weight where it needs to be.

Subfram connectors will stiffin up the chassis and help plant the power at the line.

Going to a lower gear helps as well, as well as down the track.

Above all else... practice. AKA Driver Mod
