Default New Best Time

Went to the track Saturday and ran a best ever 11.62 @ 114 MPH with a 1.53 60' . On take off the front tires came about 12" off the ground and my wife said that she could see the front of the car over the roof from behind. The weather sucked too, was in the 80's with almost 100% humidity. Hope for low 11's this winter.

great time man, congrats. I can hit roughly the same mph, but have no traction with a 2.3 60' and spinning on every shift...what tires are you running?
