Get that 60' time down and then your ET's will really drop.

You have 13.30's with a 1.9x 60' time.

I think you're doing just fine. Like previously said, a quicker 60' and you'll drop a lot off the final time. Look at it this way, the only time I've been to the track so far, I only hit 96 mph trap speed. :nonod:

With a lower 60' you will drop a couple of tenths off that 1/4 mile . I run a 13.531 @ 100 at Bradenton Motorsports Park the track is good shape just work on the launch my first time out I ran a 14.3 with a 2.3 60' I ran the 13.5 with out any different mods just got the launch down. Next time you head out there let me know maybe we can meet out there. I live right in town.
