I was expecting mph to drop with more traction... I dunno, it seemed to work that way, whenever I pull a faster 60' time it seems the mph goes down, but if I wheelspin then mph goes up.

The slicks were 22X15X8, my stock wheels are 195/60R14. I think they're pretty close in diameter... not sure how much larger the slicks get at the top end of the track, though!

I'm hoping for 13.3 @ 106mph as of right now.
As the summer goes on I'd like to hit the 12's.
