Message So I finally had the opportunity to take my fresh build to the track for the second time and get more than one good run in. For those that haven't heard I just completed a major major rebuild.

thats about it I'm sure I'm missing something

So after starting with very dissapointing runs at 14.0s (keep in mind this is only the second time I've been to the track ever.) I slowly improved as a learned to slip and launch and control the spins. I slowly worked my way down into the 13's. 13.7, 13.6,13.4,13.00. After I caught on to how the slipping thing works I finally hit a 12.71 @ 113.35. My 60ft was still only a 2.125 (pretty bad I hear). Anyone have tips to improve 60ft? Mostly I'm very satisfied with the 12.7 on street tires (potenzas) I pretty much ran out of time to try my hand at a faster time.
