Good numbers overall, especially w/your first time out. Bone stock I ran 1.8s....occaisionally 1.7s....took a while to "Trust it" and come out harder and got some 1.6s....

Being that low I would now bump the RPMs up a bit more...you're not going to be able to cut your 60 fts down much more launching 3-4k. I used to launch 4k....similar results....

Try 4.5.....I like 5k for me. I've tried 5.5 and it comes up a bit more than desired and kills some of my ET.

Good luck. You will be 6s no time.

Stock gearing? Were you coming thru on the limiter in 2nd? I used to....sometimes I'd experiment and shift into 3rd but the differences were negligible for me....then I went -1 up front. Necessitates a shift to 3rd now and I'm no where near redline when I trap but I got better 60s and it seemed to help me w/better ETs even w/the extra shift.

Good luck.
