Default track updates

well wed. night i went and raced... track was preped, good launches, 2.0s and a 2.1... ran two 13.4s and one 13.5 all at 104mph... not spraying 4th gear at all, dont know why

went tonight, horrible prep.... ran a 13.5 and a few 13.7s

the one 13.5 was a TERRIBLE 2.3 short time, track prep sucked !!!! but i ran a 13.5 at 106... so i guess that aint bad... she finally sprayed 4th... i just wish i had a good launch.... w. a 2.0 short time what shoulda that run have been... 13.2ish???

rule of thumb in the 1/4 mile, every tenth in the 60' equals 2 tenths in the end. So if you shaved 3 tenths off you 60' that would have been near 6 tenths, so you would have ran a 12.9ish. What are you launching at?
