How are you launching? That 1.9 is a pretty impressive 60'.

That looked like an awesome launch in that vid! You still on factory tires?

You are real close. Good run and you will get it in better weather. I went to the track last night to set a new best and everyone was easily a half second slower than where they should be. Horrendous weather.

Great runs! My G8 runs comparable mph but i need a better 60ft. What was the weather like? What does ICR mod stand for?
