Default Second time at the track and new PB

Went to Lapeer dragway today with a bunch of guys off of mifbody and it was a great time. My previous PB was 13.1 at 107 and my very first run today was a 13.07 at 109. After that I lower the tire pressure to 25psi and got 3 nice 12 second runs in wtih my best being 12.85 at 110 on a 2.08 60'. I'm still not very happy with my times but it was fun and good practice any suggestions?

Yeah Larry I should have gone to the MM event but I will probably be at the next one. I would throw a different cam in it but I'm going FI soon and this cam does well under boost. Oh yeah the Nittos suck *** so I'll be buying a set of BFG DRs soon and getting some suspension mods.

MT et street radials would do better but not last as long as nitto or bfg's.
Or just get another set of wheels and get some other rears. I have 2 salad shooters you can have
