    60's were from 1.57 to 1.64, I took out some rebound in the front and added 1 click compression in the rear, didn't like it, but it's squatting like a bitch.

    Contrats Dave!

    That's been my experiences as well.
    A little extra wheel speed at the start makes for more mph at the stripe.

    Of course if youy blow the tires off at the start - you still won't make it up at the big end.

    IIRC a slip percent of about 10% usually gives the best acceleration. That's in theory and every tire is different...

    Congrats.
