My first 8!

[bisquit61]

Well after throwing in a 1397 over the winter with some cams I finally reached the 8s. I'm still trying to figure out the best way to launch this thing and I think my gearing my be a little off but now that I got my 60fts respectable I guess I can start fine tuning. Here's what the ticket looked like

60ft 1.456
330 3.816
1/8 5.763
mph 125.58
1000 7.461
1/4 8.91
mph 154.74


This is with 16/40 gearing. went a couple of 9.0s with 16/42 gearing but with 150s 60ft. Guess I have to figure it out. All opinions will be appreciated.. I weigh 135-140 unsuited.

Whats your wheelbase? Your pulling enough mph for some 8.7's or better unless your running close to stk wheelbase.
Congrats on the 8!

Great job. What rpm are you at going through the traps? Are you at top of 5th or 4th? I like my gearing so the bike is at the top of 5th on motor. I get my best times gearing this way. Adjust suspension, tire pressure, launch rpm, burnout, etc,...accordingly.
