View Full Version : 60' time

The question is how to make better 60' times?
I have some measured 1/4 runs but I was not able to run better than 2.5-2.6s @60'.
I've checked the leader board and I've seen that there are times between 1.8-2.3 even with road tyres.
Is it only about exercising? Or what shall I check on my car? Maybe longer clutch fork could help? Or is it about wheel geometry, wheel size and maybe suspension?
I feel that I can make much better starts with my Megane ('98 2.0 16V) than with the GTT.
Thanks for the ideas.

Drag slicks help keep wheel-spin to a minimum, a low lag/quick spooling blower, suspension tweaks.

No.54 in the table for reference.

Hi Mart,

I know that those slicks could help but the question is how to improve those times on road tyres. The T2/T25 is quite a low lag turbo. What suspension tweaks can you suggest?

Traction bars? Some way of adjusting the camber/castor, stiffer rear end, weight over front wheels, tyre pressures.

What wheel geometry are you running on?
I mean toe-in, wheel camber?
