Default Went to track today! timeslips inside!

i went to byron dragway today.. weather was kinda cold.. my tires are pretty bald and because of weather, i took easy ot the tree so my 60's are not that good. i was like a chicken at tree, i couldnt laucnh my car the way i wanted too.. i prefered to bog the car instead of spinning cuz bogging gives me better 60'. so, i ran 4 times today and i didnt spin of the line at all except one run. i went to track to get 13.5s but i am back with very dissapointing 13.7[]

here are my time slips.. and my car is stone stock air filter.

first Run.. ( crappy 60' but ET is ok)



second Run: ( 1.99 60' foot on my bald tires )



third run (missed 3rd )



last run:



and here is a couple pics. of my car waiting at the line..

Very cool. I haven't broke 2.0 60' even with 300RWHP. Sad.
