My best at that track was a 12.8 @113, and that was on drag radials in cool weather. That track actually goes uphill. Rumor has it car and driver tests their cars there, going the opposite direction.

^^^^ this

You can tell a lot from the time slip, if you're making power, you'll see it in the mph. If it was traction, launch and shifting you see it in the 60ft and et. If this was you're first time, don't worry, you will get better. You'll pick up et just by having more seat time.

I tried to post the pic but didn't work
My 60' was consistent at 2.0-2.2
My mph was from 106-112mph
It was my first time at the track

Yeah can shave the 60' down. Go to the track during test and tune, preferably in cooler weather. There is better track prep then. Just know that your car will most likely be slower than anything you're matched up against.
