Default poor day at the track

Went to the track today because it was a nice day and went 12.7 at 114mph. I could only muster a 2.1 60' on my 315 nittos. I have 4.33 gears in my 12 bolt. I tried launching from 3k all the way up to 5k. I aired down the nittos to 15lbs. I need more seat time in my car. I put down 373 to the wheels and the car has gone 12.1 @ 116 but that was with ET Streets.

Definately an 11 second car there. Get some real drag radials (M/T) or step up to dot slicks or full slicks. The 4.33 gears and a manual trans will make hooking on a street-based tire more difficult, and that 60 foot will always hold back the true potential of the car.

Good luck!
