Default New Track Footage

I decided to go up to the drag strip 2 Fridays ago to see if I could beat my previous best of 13.49. I was unable to do better as my best was a 13.69 but somehow my trap speeds have increased by about 3 MPH.

1st run I *****-footed the launch (2.1 60') but nabbed the best E.T. of the night.
2nd run I was in a bracket race with an early 90's Protege' I had a 13.8 dial-in and he had a 20.1 dial-in which caught me sleeping at the line. Even though I let off towards the end I still broke out by .02.
3rd run was the best launch of the night with an even 2.0 60'

ENJOY!

Good runs, are you on drag radials and are you holding through 2nd gear all the way through the traps?

Drag Radials (crappy BFG G-Forces I miss my MT E.T. Streets) but I do not hold 2nd otherwise I tap the limiter... I'm hitting 3rd gear well before the line. Even with the tune I only have her wind out to 6k. It is my daily driver afterall.
