I have drag mode but I haven’t used it since I’ve gotten the blower. Not sure it would make much of a difference

I believe on a Stage 1 kit, trans strategy isn't tuned meaning you should run in drag mode it you have an A10
If you have a 6sp then its mute

How did you run the car?

Sport with TC on?

The car will absolutely ET better if you can keep traction in drag mode. The MPH is still the biggest issue with these cars if T/C is off and not limiting power.

I run in sport with TC off. TC has never once kicked in while at the track so I don’t think that is affecting my time.

I may try drag mode but after the tires broke loose when it shifted at over 100, I haven’t bothered to try it again.

sounds like you need some drag radials...end that tire breaking loose issue at speed.

Your car had enough power to break traction at over 100 MPH but only ran 11.6?

I thought the same thing, that's why I made the "need a dr" post earlier... Mine ran a best of 11.15 @ 124 n/a (A10, 3.55's) and I don't see wheel spin past my 2-3 shift (which is no where near triple digit speeds). So yeah...something is fishy with that statement...really somethings fishy with a car supposedly set up like he's describing even running in the 11's (definitely doesn't make any sense if he does have a dr tire)....should be running low 10's pretty easily I'd think.

It did that on the street. I haven’t tried at the track. Our track is pretty bad so I haven’t bothered to try it because they hardly prep the track and dust usually ends up covering the track past the 330 ft mark.

If it spins at 100mph going down the strip on a DR, then someone spilled oil or water up top and that would only happen in a upshift?

U have to run the car with octane booster and in drag mode!!!!

My car stock in drag mode spun them at 94MPH on the 4-5 shift on concrete.
