60' time? If your an auto then that explains it right there, if you are a 5 sp it most likely is inexperience on the track. The worn plugs probably aint helping, check out your wires for wear too when you go to replace the plugs. Other than that, practice, practice, practice. You'll get better.

I don't think the plugs could hurt your time that much. Like ^^^ said, it's either because you're an auto (not a bad time for autos) or because you have the lack of experience with racing a manual.

I think you might have just explained why your running 17.3. Also, it may be lack of experience that contributes to the cracked mani and heavy rims in giving you the 17.3.

WOW, first how do you crack an exahaust manifold?? Second, how do you drive with that obnoxious noise? I had a 1/8 inch hole in mine and it was so loud and sounded so bad I couldn't drive it. T
