RE: track results from first ever run

My car was running really badly, due to a shorting out coil, but last time i hit the track on my 315 nitto drags, it was only a 2.1 60, shes up and running better, so im betting a 1.x is in her future on them, if not, ill just throw on my 26x11.50 mickey ets and give it a whirl...lol

You havent touched you suspension yet from what I can tell and better tires would help too....this will get your 60 below 2 and you will pick up a great deal wih the suspension upgrades

The suspension to me is a cop-out, I run 1.7's on stock equipment and drag radials. Can it be improved, yes but to me it's not one of the first things needed, tires yes, but the suspension is more than fine until things get a bit wild.

First this is my first time ever on the track the high today was 90 and humidity was 80+%. Elavation I'm not to sure about but it shouldn't be to bad in Mich at milan dragway.
60ft 1/8 mph 1/4 mph
2.269.3 7914.16102
2.57 9.4 79 14.32 102
2.23 9.4 77 14.33 101
2.13 9.1 79 14.00 102

I'm very disappointed in my times. My mods are cai, tuned by brenspeed, o/r hpipe, exhaust and 295/35/18 street tires. Here are my questions would the heat affect my times to 1/2 a sec as I was expecting mid 13's? Are there any glaring mistakes I'm making from my numbers? What should be my first mods to do to get better times? I'm addicted to speed and modding now?

On just a CAI and 93 octane tune I ran 13.4's @ 104 all day long and102 mphbefore the CAI and tune leading me to believe the DA was horrible for you. I race at Great Lakes which has negative DA on some days but my last time there was 2400! So it's possible that played a big part on the big end. How are you launching the car?
