What mods do you have?

What tires are you running?

Nice! I'm going to guess this wasn't your first time at the track.

You definitely left strong and nailed your shifts. Well done.

Nice run,

looks like you had very good traction, what kind of tires were you running on the rears?

12-1300 DA isn't that bad at for this time of year.

You want better times get better tires. 15" conversion and more sidewall. 1.4-1.5 60 ft's.

Nice !!! You can pop sub 1.5 60' times with 17" and 18" drag radials, so you have 10.50's in her with just a tire/wheel swap.

I saw Beach Bum cut a 1.27 60' on 17" hoosiers, he's auto converted though
