Re: My talon 1/4 mile pass @ BIR

Nice, your 1g bounces as much as mine on the launch

Stock, shot suspension will do that. I get those "compliments" quite often, too. One time, I actually lifted front tire on the launch, according to bystanders.
Shifting is somewhat slow due to shot clutch pedal assembly. If I slam the pedal down during quick shifts, it doesn't disengage the clutch right away, so I have to wait. Hence slower shifts.
Launch def. needs to be improved, I think I am gonna try from lower rpms (5k in that video)
I am not sure if I want to go and beat on the car some more to get into 11s, we will see. I still need something to drive this winter
