Ran down the asphalt 1/8 drags

[05DodgeDakota]

Ran a best of 9.6 at 65. I was full throttle launching in 2nd gear. It would bog out then take off. Too much traction for a change. Also was on the rev limiter at the traps. Gonna get a 36 tooth rear and give it another try.

what sprockets u runnin now

14/39 on 18.5 tires

Try 20" tires or 22's. They will give you more top speed

By it is much more expensive to buy larger aphalt tires vs. a new rear sprocket

I ran 8.83 with 22in tires and 14/39 gearing.

I was only in 4th gear.

I would get 16/36 if I were using 18's, you really need to launch 1st gear if you can, you just have to launch and almost while losing traction shift to second gear.

Launching in first I wheelied everytime, gearing is too low for that currently. No way in hell I could clear a 16 tooth front, and I don;t need that much more gear.

You might have been faster if you were able to use 5th. I know my motor likes to be short shifted, most 4t do. I had to wind out each gear to make it down the track without hitting the limiter in 5th before the finish line lol.
