Imrovement from 12.4 last month. Car has remained the same (with crappy street tyres 265 kumhos) just brake boosted slightly higher 1700 rpm and shifted manualy.

I reckon could get a high 11 with some nitto's
Great work mate. Try brake boost at about 2200rpm if you dont have slicks, remember to shift early as the car takes awhile to shift. Are you shifting gear just before the line?
Cool will try launching a bit harder next run. My 60ft could improve its 1.9 sec.

Yep shifting as soon as I hit 6000 rpm. I dont have a1 kickdown blocker so launching in 1st gear. When I launch should I shift earlier i.e. before 6000 rpm?

And is 6k shift right for all other gears?
