New Best Tonight!
New Best Tonight! I had a blast tonight! Traction sucked, as the pavement was too cold. However, it was hot-lap city. You could literally keep lapping without ever getting a chance to turn your car off...in fact, I made the mistake of doing too many runs and when I finally did shut the car off my coolant boiled over. Fortunately it was only coolant, and it was through the spill valve, so no problem a little water couldn't cure.
As for results, I did 12 runs and these are the best and worst of the night:
60' - 2.112 / 2.390 (I had to feather the launch to get below 2.2)
1/8 - 9.076 / 9.574
MPH - 80.42 / 77.86
1/4 - 13.911 / 14.517
MPH - 104.07 / 93.04 (Missed my 3-4 shift that time)
That's right, my new best is 13.911 @ 104.07 mph!!!

Almost forgot, Rotwiler has some video for most of us that were there. I'll post a run or two of mine as soon as I receive them.
I now know my winter mod list...a 160 T-stat and a line lock. If I can do proper burnouts and get that 60' down I think I might see mid 13's.
