Re: went to the track last night....

Considering your extremely poor 60' time the balance of the run looks good. Work on the launch. Basically sticky tires like drag radials or better track treatment or both would help, plus the single most important ingredient.... Practice. It took me a lot of tire smoke to figure out the launch. The run looks fine all things considered.
