If u didn't break then it was awesome. Any spinning off the line? What was your 60?

 

[VPRPWRD]

as long as you had fun, although the times seem slow.

 

[mysrt10]

Just work on your launch and you should be able to cut 2+ seconds from your times.

 

[raymondwebb]

Very slow....was u launching?

 

[SergioL.]

60ft?

 

[phxpoolguy]

Those are slow times but I believe that's a high altitude where you were racing.

Well I thought it sounded really slow but I looked up the DA at your track for last Saturday and your 15.8 would correct to about a 14.2 at a sea level tack so your not too much slower than you should be. Work on your launch and change your air filter I would guess you could pick up another .3 or thereabouts. Was the jeep stock and what did it run?

Dom was running low 10s at this track....very good times considering the track give Dom a call he is from Farmington and will be at that track in the next couple months

Need to heat them....then launch at different rpms to find ur sweet spot

Dude, DA is everything. You are running at elevation which is something many of these guys don't understand. Get ahold of Dom. He has a ton of experience running at your track and nobody knows what it takes to make our trucks fast, better than he does.

Based on all of the recommendations I have seen, the K&N drop in is the best route to go with your air filter.
