Default Consistant 60fts.

Seems like my 60fts. aren't the best & could be better, but at least there consistant, my reaction times are improveing too, i ran 3 runs tonight & drove the car back with-in a tenth of my best, so i'm happy with that, i'm no longer missing gears (especially 3rd.) & i'm getting some fans in the stands lol, i guess its my stocker look & 4K+ dumps of the clutch Here are the 3 tonight, i left at 4K every run & ran 23 lbs pressure (useally run 18), was wanting it to spin some to see if the 60fts. improved, but of coarse it still hooks hard.

DA was right about 2900ft.

60ft. 2.0758
9.13 @ 78.32
13.95 @ 99.96

60ft. 2.0076
8.95 @ 79.30
13.72 @ 100.87

60ft. 2.0188
8.86 @ 81.36
13.66 @ 100.49

When i ran the 13.55 & 13.58 the DA was around 23-2400 & still the 60fts. were 2.0018 & 2.0036 on those runs, i'm sure this fall when the DA is around 1000ft. or less, i'll get some 13.3s out of it, maybe even 103 mph with these 2.0 60fts., but if it 60fts. better in the cooler air (which it should) thats just iceing on the cake, my main goal at this point is a 13.2 time slip from this ol'e pig.
