i ran at english town and i was very happy considering it was my first time lauching my car had about 1500 miles on it, and running at the track in general. first run i got a 14.7, second run a 14.4, and the last run i got a 14.3. my last run had a 2.4 60 ft and the rest had 2.3's. i don't know why my 60 ft was worse and got a better time. i was just reving it up to about 7500 rpm's and dumping it. it was extremly fun but will nevr go again for the fact it is so killer on the car. i have it on video but i don't have a video card to put it on my computer, if that is what u need
have fun improving and be careful

I have been to two different tracks in central PA. 14.4 @ 97mph at the one, but it was 90F+ in the early August. Then two 13.98X at 98mph at Maple Grove when it was about 75F in September. I wanted to go yesterday, but they said they close at the first freeze (apparently no heat, so they flush everything and leave).
my car was totally stock at the time with the spare and tools removed.
Looking for 13.6-13.7 in cooler weather with spoon wheels and J's exhaust.

I was doing small burnout's and launching pretty decent at about 6500-6800rpm (varies by track). I think my worst run was 14.4 because I spun too much. If Englishtown wasn't so far from me, I would like to run again this year, but.......
O ya... piss around with your airpressure too... i ran 26psi in my rear tires.

amazingly, my reaction time was only .532 (luck) on the 13.994 run @ 98.5mph
60' - 2.141
1/8 - 9.023 @ 78mph
The other one was .822 reaction time with 2.131 60', 1/8 in 9/010 @ 78.07mph and 13.983 @97.93mph.
the 14.4 from the other track....drum roll.... 1.299 reaction time.
