Any who, my best time was 13.73 @ 110.9mph I'm sure with more practice, my et's will go down. Like I said, this was my first time at the track. It was fun, and the dsm got me home. So, no complaints here. Excellent. Looks like you got a good workable unit. As for wheel hop on the launch but not in the box, not unusual. The box has less friction because of the water being put down. Nice start on the times. What are your launch times? I suspect that you will probably gain there. What is your suspension set-up (as well as tires, wheels, air pressure etc.)? Do you have a upper strut bar installed? Oh yeah, what's your power level? Not sure how much power I'm making, I've never dyno'd the car yet. See above post for the basics of my setup. No, I don't have a strut bar. But I would like to get one.
Yes, get one. I've tested with and without and they DO make a difference. They are pretty cheap of E-bay or whatever...and they're shiney too 
Originally posted by fresh95As far as wheels/tires I have 17x8 rims with 215/45 tires.
With that kind of sidewall profile, you won't gain too much from air pressures. You talked about slicks and those would absolutely lower your times. Fact.

Suspension wise, I use the tokico hp blue struts with sprint 2" lowering springs.
Sounds good enough. Just wanted to see if you got stock or adjustable set-up.
Originally posted by fresh95 My reaction times varied, but on the 13.7 run I had a .041 R/T.
By launch, I meant your 60'. Your reaction time has nothing to do with your quarter time. The reaction time is the time that it takes from the green light coming on to you actually moving off the time (and breaking the "beams"). You could have had a reaction time of 10 seconds and it wouldn't have mattered to the 13.7 time. Your 60's tell us how well you are hooking up when you "launch".
