Good passes.
Did your 60s pick up at all? Those tires were usually good for around 1.80 +/- .05 sixty foots on my car. I agree with your crew on the burnout. The more smoke I made with the Mickeys the better they hooked.

2012 GT500 543/533 11.7@120
1995 5.0 minute or two per lap
After watching the videos, I agreed too, on the smoke, so I made much more smoke yesterday. The sixties are improved, but not too much.
Yesterdays runs:
(time trials)
12.89 @ 108.61 1.957 60 ft
12.87 @ 108.59 1.936 60 ft
Went with 12.87 Dial In on account of lack of info on this car. :)
Round One Win:
12.94 @ 108.52 1.960 60 ft
Round 2 loss:
12.97 @ 108.53 1.972 60 ft
First two runs, had nice smoky burnouts, last two runs I had hard time getting them to smoke and stick, probably because of humidity on track. It started raining 5 minutes after last run.
My opponent on the 4th run ran a full tenth over his dial in as well. He won, and KOd me by virtue of his .02814 RT to my .05623 RT, something I still need to improve.

I've gotten it down to 12.69 at 109.98 mph now, with a 1.903 60 ft. Tomorrow 4.10s are going in. I'm hoping to get close to the 11s now. The 12.69 was done at a D/A of 2300 ft. Some day I will get to run under decent conditions, and see what she can really do.

Thanks. Yes, I am running MT ET Radials right now, but I will be running 28X9-15 ET drags after the 4.10s and Moser axles go in.
The 4.10s are in, and man, it feels like a totally different car. I bet I will see some daylight between those front tires and the pavement this sunday.
