I may not fit in but have a 6spd and a cummins in a heavy truck so I should,
1.92, 4x4, 2nd, 33/12.50, 800, SBC Tripple Disc
First time to the track for me, big charger just would not do a 3rd gear launch then only got two trys at 2nd gear and hit it pretty good on my last one. Few more run I think I could get it better. Was blowing off all 6 though out of the hole, I rev to 3800 and not quite dump the clutch but let it out so that it lets the charger light before its all the way out.

Well guys, I ran a new personal best 60' time. I actually raised the air pressure in my tires to 65 psi front and 55 psi rear. This allowed me a little wheel spin at launch and prevented that momentary bog I got before turbo was fully spooled. I also clamped the front half of the main spring pack to try to minimize axle wrap.
My second and third runs resulted in violent front axle hop and shook so much dirt off the underside of my truck that I was asked to leave. It's not fair to make everyone else wait 20 minutes for the sweeper to clean up my mess!
