My first time at the track was sunday 3/4 my best was a 13.5 with a 2.2 60 ft completely stock. i was happy with those result but i could prob bring it down because i was spinning most the way through first.
Plus i put on really shitty mastercraft tires to pass inspection.

That's definitely a good time for stock. Best I got stock was a 13.4. With my brother's WS6 with a lid/Magnaflow catback I got a 12.85@109.02 with a 1.990 60's and some good weather. What was your 60' time?
