My aching 60’ foot

[1320John$$$]

Slower car is out 60 footing the faster car and my consistency is a poor showing
Has anyone ever experiment with the vacuum advance in the distributor to improve 60 foot or help in the consistency of
Things I have tried
Leaving at a higher or lower RPM
Taller rear tires
Change right rear shock .01 Decrease in ET zero help in consistency
Reinstalled front sway bar no change
Add weight to car no change slower ET
Solid motor mount or engine limiter is the next thing I’m going to try
Throw any suggestions out that you have worked thanks
Soon to be called first round John

What tire pressure do you run in the Nitto’s? Are you spinning when you launch? The Nitto’s work okay but not near as good as the Mickey Thompson drag radials.

I ran Mickey Thompson R and Hoosier drag slicks Nothing changed I tried baking them in the burn out box and I also tried shorter burnouts along with tire pressures
