outhouseZTT said below. Practice, practice, practice...compare your previous runs (with street tires to the ones with the ET streets and notice the significant lowering of times as your 60' dropped). No reason you can't drop another .2-.3 of a second off of the 60'. Notice how getting the car moving early results in significantly better ETs. I also noticed greatly improved MPH on some of your runs, my guess is you are shifting at more optimal points in your power band, which results in better MPH and ETs. If you are interested, I could forward some info on where to shift your car (providing you have a dyno chart) so you can figure out optimal shift points. Mike and Ryan (outhouseZTT and sleezy rom) are great examples of guys who practiced their launch techniques and created some great 1/4 mile times for their set ups. It's fun huh? Keep up the good work. Take care, Mark
