Check out my times and 60fts. My launch is basically the same every run.
60ft ET MPH
2.455 14.704 97.99(the worst I've done)
2.168 14.113 98.505
2.190 14.190 98.286
2.304 14.536 97.919(I was expecting a 13.9x)

I'm running the stock tires. So I don't warm them up before I stage. I'm think theres either left over water in the staging area or I'm getting some on the tires when i go to the staging area. Should I scratch my tires before I stage. Also how is the track on Saturdays? and is it crowded?

Considering the track condition that night, I don't think that's bad at all.
The best we could get was a 13.7 @104.
With a best 60ft of 2.2, on sticky tires!
I got it sideways shifting into 2nd!

I saw you run your explorer. But I didn't know it was you. Next time we should all meet up somewhere on they way to the track. So we can figure out who everybody is.

I'm happy for the most part with my 60fts. i would like to run consistant 2.1x and hit 2.0 every once in a while. But the track conditions won't allow that on wednesday nights. How is the track on friday and saturday nights, which night is the best one to go on.

Bunchmyfunky,

The track is prepped well for saturday nights. Also it's not crowded and you run when you want to. I know of some people going tomorrow. I'm gonna watch. I gotta get my car ready for smog and then sell my parts and the car, then get a brand new one
