First time out with the new combo

11.43 @ 119.28 in the 1/4

best/worst 60 1.589/1.632
best/worst 1/8 7.295/7.347
best/worst 1/8 mph 94.65/94.27
best/worst 1/4 11.437/11.489
best/worst 1/4 mph 118.78/121.21

weather was 60° 30.25 baro 70% humidity
couldn't get the car to dead hook on any of the runs. Spun leaving for about 8-12 feet. I don't know whether it was the track conditions or the 2 year old ET streets.
With a dead hook in simular weather I'd expect 1.500 sixtys and 11.20s at 120 mph.

What all have you got in it? I hope with good air I can dip into the 11.4's this fall.
