60 ft times are ALL about good suspension (Traction). No Hook, No Time.

60 foot times are lowered with traction, and suspension is a big factor in that.

Weight transfer and good tires go a long way in cutting down on the 60ft time (lower times are better). Suspension plays a huge role as well. It all goes hand and hand.
