I don't think that its really a secret it's just that I can't read what you wrote. Try asking specific questions and you might get better answers.

The best dragbike is stock. It has consistency and reliability. The rider has the make or breaking of times. I have a 1426 and I am lucky to break into the nines. I suck at it but I only go for fun. If you knew which class you were going to run would be very helpful. If it is only bracket racing then quickness doesn't count. And if you want to go faster then it is only a matter of a dry shot.

To the OP he whomever spends the most money and is skinnest is usually the fastest guy or gal .. BUT gearing is cheapest E.T for your bike go for a 3 to 1 ratio like 15/ 45

Practice will do more for you than anything you can buy. I've seen lots of guys spend a ton of money on motor work or turbo and not run good numbers because they never learned to really ride.

who cares how much power it makes, what matters is how you put the power down (clutch, shock, chassis)
oh, and a datalogger, wego 3 is the best bang for the buck if you got a PCIIIUSB
or get lazy and throw a slider in it and buy an airshifter cyliner, solenoid, fittings, and lines from an industrial parts supply store, hook one wire up to a 12v switched signal, like the tail light, and then wire to other to one of the universal outputs on a dynojet multifunction hub set up to acticvate with 90% throttle and rpms just far enough below redline so that you don't hit the rev limiter on the 1-2 shift. also, use the dynojet quickshifter set at 65ms kill time. all you have to do crack open the throttle and keep it pinned.

And none of this "I got a map off of the internet" crap. Get it tuned by somebody who really knows what they're doing.
