I think that would be interesting to do (once) when I get the car back together and get a new clutch in it... I wonder what my car would do in a 1/4 mile ? 400 lbs lighter and fat rear tires...
Are those fat rears a stiff sidewall for road race?? Might not 60 ft well, they tend to shock the tread loose on the launch if the wall don't flex enough.
Go try the 1/4 it's fun too.
When you get to the tree it should be on the .500 second setting, meaning 3 sequential ambers then green. First time out try to launch when the 3rd amber comes on. Don't wait for a green. Then tweak it from there, you might need to leave when the 2nd amber goes off instead.
Go around the waterbox, so your front tires don't get wet and take that water to the line, it will only hurt your grip to be on a wet track.
