All I can guess is she's limited on tuning maybe lol.
Did 4 runs.
2nd gear launch 3400 rpm hopped bad 13.5@102
3rd gear launch 3800 rpm 2 second 60 ft 13.6@103
2nd gear launch 3000 rpm wouldnt go in 4th 14.1@ 102 I think.
2nd gear launch 3000 rpm clean run 13.5@104

My crew did a few 13.4s but this truck traps higher but hops more off the line my rear tries to be lazy and spin one side on Launches I need to get an aam posi in it lol. All tires were at 25 psi, 285/60/17 toyos proxes.Had fun it was a blast smoked a gto, a rx8, and a weird GMC crossover thing and lost to a 4th Gen camaro. Love the short throw but this thing 60 1.8s consistently while hopping. Gonna get a center link brace and posi for sure

With my old lb7 ally I would run a bunch of 13.1's @ 104 mph. I was getting terrible 60' times also like 1.8's. Sounds like you are stroking the gears pretty well!

You need to work on your suspension, esp being a ZF. You should be conversing with Caleb and Darius about their past setups and what they learned.
I would not recommend you run the same tire pressure both front to back. Youre forcing the truck to fight itself down the track.
Also cant believe you are racing one of these trucks without some sort of LS diff.

I agree I'm lowered, ranchos in the front with sleeves. Gonna do a dhd style brace and a guy at the track told me dhd has Like a control arm brace as well. It Def needs rear shocks. I wasn't sure what trucks came with lockers and what didnt. This one doesn't seem to have one and I think that's screwing my launches. 3rd gear launch was so smooth but I don't think It's worth it, I can slam third so fast it's faster to launch second at this point, maybe with more power I'd like the 3rd gear launches better. I know my 60 is killing Me and I think it's because it's launching on the front end and one back tire. If i get a posi I think it's gonna rip off the line.

Buy M and H drag radials and be done. Dustin at Diesel Addiction can get you setup with some real wheels also at smoking a price.

Maybe when I get more power lol when I get the turbo on there I'm gonna have to get some drag radials. And I'm just so opposed to 20s lol some good race wheels would be sweet. My buddy already wants me to back half it and it's in the 13s lol

Just dont spend money multiple times on the same thing. Dont buy 420's then buy radials 6 months later. Just wait till you can afford the good shit and be done with it.

I always wanted to do marks 3794 on that thing.. I think it would wake it up seriously and be stock engine safe..

Then If you get really serious and win the lottery build a motor and put your 475 on top

Lol bought a power ball saturday and no luck lol. I might try to get some cash saved up for a mild build in a year or so. I'm not really a stock engine kind of guy lmao. With a posi and some tweaking this thing is gonna run pretty good I think. But now a 12.9 isn't gonna mean shit, there's a 4 door common rail dodge down there that ran an 11.5 saturday. So someone needs to put him in his place cuz I can't do it lol

Was that full weight or ?

No tail gate or spare. Other than that it was all there. It hops but 60s the same as the crew did and finishes at a higher trap speed but a slower time. It's losing it somewhere. I don't think it pulls as hard as the crew in the lower gears. But it's lighter 60s the same and it's a tenth slower lol
