You will not need a trans tune to better your 60ft times. My tires /wheels that you now have has given me a 1.70 60ft, a 1.68 60 ft and a 1.67 60 ft on 3 separate passes all on different days and time of year. It is well documented the best 60 ft times are achieved by just smacking the throttle off dead idle. Run them at 16lbs down the track. Run a 1/8 tank of fuel helps also. I never experienced any bog at all off the line with the nannies all off. Its possible Jannetty's conservative tune does tone down some torque management. You know my 2021 LT1 has a untouched untuned trans. My take on your 1.85 60ft I do believe you spun a little. My weakest 60 ft the very first time on the tire you have from me was a 1.79 . I had no clue about how they were going to hook and I did not just mash it to the floor. Even with the easy launch and then the right to the floor approach, 330ft was 4.95 VS your 5.2 indicating no spin once the gas was to the floor and no possible spin on the 1-2 shift. Good luck my friend and Oh yeah, remove your front sway bar.

There he is, Hey Don! Not sure if you read it or not but when I left home I had 25PSI in the rears and kept them there the whole night so I suppose that's possible it could of hurt the 60'. I will say on my fully built 2001 Camaro I ran 275 40 17 MT ET ST S/S with 32PSI and got my best 60' of 1.5. That was my best pass at 10.9. That was with just a yank SS3600! No wheel spin.
These ET ST Rs are a better tire than the S/S and they were aired down to 25PSI, I do not believe they spun at all. All 4 runs I believe they did not spin one bit.
One thing is I did experience wheel hop during burnout with this car/tires that I NEVER had with the 2001. I'm wondering what the cause is and how to stop that. This is what I was afraid of with IRS vs solid axle.
I was wondering what your opinion is on this and what your door sticker says because you have basically the same car I do?

Yeah see, exactly my point. There's way too many unknowns and variables to figure that situation out. I did a quick search to try and find more info about that car but that pass was never posted on here. Iv never posted any "corrected" stuff so I have no idea. It only adds to the unknowns/variables.
Let me know about what you have on your door sticker I'm curious what ya got
