Nice. What part of NC are you from?

Stickier tires would definitely get your 60' times down. It is a good day when you can cut nearly a full second off your time, regardless! Congratulations!

It was my second time going down the dragstrip. I am from Apex NC. Thanks.

That's about where I started out my first time to the track, upper 13s. Some tires, suspension upgrades and seat time has gotten me into the high 11s now.

In order to get your r/t down, try taking off at the last yellow light instead of waiting for the green. If you see the tree turn green then you've waited too long.

Thanks for the advice.
