Ran it a few times...
Man, there is a lot of activity on this site! Nice.
Well, I went to the track & I'm only mildly happy. I was hoping to get 13.69 or faster, with a stretch goal of 13.38.
Maybe unrealistic, but anyways.....
My best run of the night was 13.74 @ 103.72 w/ 2.11 60' time. Every other run was in the 13.8x's.

You will get it! Find a nice road to practice launching on and timing your 0-60 times. You are staying in 3rd right crossing the finish line?

I know, I gotta practice launching more. And yes, I've got ESP off, and launch in sport mode, I request a downshift at around 80-85mph to keep it in 3rd gear.....
Front tires at 51, rear tires at 35psi. (I should have tried dropping the pressure in the rears after I got the 13.74, I forgot too.
I had a 1/2 tank of gas, next time I'll race with an 1/8. I had a decent amount of crap in the car, including a child seat because my wife & daughter went to the track with me.
There were only like less than 30 cars there so it was awesome. I never had to wait.

You may try going up to 37psi. If you are not spinning more then a revolution do not drop air.
