Every now and then I like to go to one of the 2 UK strips. I know that you cant cant have a major drag set up and then fast comfortable street car, well i am not sure you can. Best I have ever done is 12.6 at 121mph (car is SC Whipple) but nasty hop and jumps most of the time at launch. As a weekend of fun it would be nice to launch the car better. I have read all the posts, threads and discussions. But would welcome any tips. It has pedders coilovers, BMR005, Diff bushings and thats about it on suspension. My suspension has always leaned to fast road, so i may have gone down the wrong route already? My check list from reading is
Drop rear pressures to say 26-28
DONT launch control it, i tried a few times but just seems to rev and bog down.
Move to Race mode but keep tract control pressed to remove advance trac as I think it still kicks in.
SMooth roll in then hoon it.
I would welcome thoughts for a total novice (I used to rally so this drag stripping is new to me) as to how better to set up or add to the car?
Cheers and be kind...I am new at this!
