Not happy, I now know the car has alot more potential though, I just need to be willing to launch it harder. Yea I tend to launch too hard and it screws up my times. Im trying to make up for my crappy take offs with more top end power lol What was your best 60' ? 14.6's arent bad I was stuck there for alittle bit. Thats when i decided to start modding more I had PERFECT track conditions on my 14.0 run last year and it was cold as hell outside.

I did manage a 14.2 finally the last trip, I cannot find any slips though, from when we went to piedmont and all the rocks. I think they got tossed by one of the 'rents cause last I know I had them on the work bench in the garage, I had cleaned out the car for all the shows and they probably thought the pile was nothing, grrr.
