Default First time at track racing a car...

I've only raced bikes down the 1320 before so this was my first experience piloting a car. The car was exactly as it is in my sig, GY Eagle F1's on 17'' ZR-1's.

I went 13.100 @ 109.64.
2.17 60'

My first run was my best. That was the only time I had a decent launch. Each other time, I bogged. Out of 7 runs, 5 runs were 13.2's and one was a 13.6 when I missed 3rd. Pretty consistent I guess. I know it has a 12 in it, the question is whether I can pull it out. I was launching between 2200 and 2800 while trying to slip it.

Any advice on the launch?

Practice is the key to getting into the 12's. Good luck.
