Loading your car.
I'm not sure if anyone has already made this point. I didn't read every single post. One thing I've found is that loading my car helps tremedously with 60 ft times. It takes trial and error but well worth it. To do it simply do your burn out as usual. Roll to the lights. When your opponent is ready, light the first beam. Bring your rpm level to whatever you want to launch at and pull up your e brake slightly. Slowly let out your clutch till you feel the car start to inch forward. Once the second beam is lit, pull up your e-brake all the way to stop the car keeping the clutch position the same. Your car is now loaded. Once the lights come down simply side step the clutch and simultaneously drop the e-brake and get ready to shift to second. This will pull you through to your best 60 ft times once perfected. Not only does loading reduce wheel hop, but it also helps build boost, and is easier on drive line parts. e-brake excluded. But I'd rather replace my e-brake rather then a tranny or axles. My advice is to practice this tecnique on a side street rather than at the track. Like I said it takes trial and error, and you don't want to be like me and drive the whole 1320 with your e-brake up.
