I was expecting mid 10's, and should have been there. Maybe some other time.

i came out at 4000 rpms and got my best 60' ever without even trying. It was well prepped for the most part.

Kenny I have also heard a super long burnout is what those tires neeeded.

i will attribute my crappy launching against myself this time...i wasnt sure what pressure i should have had them at so i was intially at 28psi, then 22psi then 18 but it was a cold 18, so it probably went back up during the burnout...i tried to get them nice and smokey and warm but it just never really happened, back end kept sliding off the track. i swear i never had a scarier moment in my life then when my back end got really loose that one run... :o people said i didnt, but it sure felt as if i got the rear end in the other lane. i dunno if i hit oil or what..

Kenny I didnt see if the tires were slicks or what. But Ill tell you I was running 12 lbs in the left tire and 11 lbs in the right. You may have needed alot less tire pressure.

I sure as hell thought the track was very sticky, My car stuck really well, and my tranny broke on my last run.
