Learn to feather the clutch/get plenty of practice. If traction is still an issue, get stickier tires.

Nice RT though!

Yeah 113 mph trap speed is pretty good. Probaly a bit of room for improving the ET's in learning how to launch and get the 60' times down.

Dude! Haha I'm the guy with the Sonic Blue 04 with the Vortech From what I saw you were doing really well for the first time, might wanna burnout to raise your tire temps a bit for stickier launches. Btw, I gotta grab a set of those Summit seats now, very excellent!

I was really stinking it up yesturday, my best time was 13.0 with a 1.9 60ft and .1RT... Only pass which felt good (at first) the one time I raced the guy in the Supra (IndyKid on Indycarz.com) who was running low 12's all day I was neck and neck till I missed third I had a .04 reaction time and 1.6 60ft! ....MGW in my future? lol

Really though, good job - that was a respectable pass!

You'll definately get better with practice. I took my car to the track once recently and made a pass. I ran a 12.9x with a 2.0x 60 at 107mph. What bothered me most was the 107 and thought something was wrong. I put it on the dyno a couple of days later and found I was only making 307rwhp. Had it fixed and picked up 20rwhp. I'll be heading back for some more seat time as well. Good luck.

Something to think about, you're about 600~700 feet lower sea level.
