Thanks for the congrats Chris, any tips or advice for quicker times you want to throw my way would be appreciated...
you are already running faster than me at around the same weight

I am not sure what advice I could give you haha

I think your runs are great, I am hoping for similar times with a 1.5 sixty and good tire.

1.58 on that ET street is great. Only thing I'd consider is suspension tuning and a better tire (ET drag or similar)
