Ok so last year I went to rockfalls and it was raining and they ended up drying the track although it was still misting out. Iam pretty sure I did horrible but I want to see if you guys have any pointers. Also to add in this was my first time. Iam going again this year. Since then all I have changed is added a body kit witch is gonna be bad Iam assuming, got 17 inch koning Incidents, and a carbon spoiler witch is also bad, on a plus iam gonna get a short throw shifter. Anyways I guess all Iam asking is with tell you last years numbers is there anything you can tell me to work on......
R/T..... .533 bad right
60'.... 2.626
330 ... 6.927
1/8..... 10.465
mph.....69.78
1000... 13.484
1/4....16.063
mph....86.69
I have a intake, 2.5inch headers and back, upper and lower engine mounts. Should I put my stock rims back on?

Even if it's just misting, having the track even a bit damp has got to kill 60 ft times! Your 2.6 is indicative of that.
Your 17's probably have much stickier tires than your stock wheels do so you're probably making up more in the first 1000 feet than you're losing due to the extra rotating mass. I'd stick with them.
Work on the launch and shifting. Decent times!
BTW, HEADER, not headers!!!!!!

do you ever notice that the ones who talk the loudest have the least to talk about?
For your first time at the track it was not bad with the track conditions you mentioned. 60ft time is very bad. Shows you were spinning. I would recommend putting your stock tires on (might not make a big difference). You need to play with your tire pressure a little start around 28psi. Adjust your RPM you are launching at, and see how much wheel spin you get. You want to be able to luanch with as much RPM's with as little tire spin. So you have to play and find that sweet spot.
what would u expect with a auto z with a HEADER, catback exhaust, upper, and lower engine mounts, and a intake
Where did you get auto......And who the f cares if i say header or headers, you know what iam talking about obviously so shut up. I wasn't expecting more i was asking there was room for improvement and if so where, some people on here are just annoying and i don't understand why there here.

to get a good reaction time is pretty easy i think, well now it is for me, just hit the gas as soon as the second to last night hits and by the time the green tree goes on your already moving.
