Message I think it's probably possible to go 2.0XX on street tires, but I was never able to do it. 2.162 was my street tire best, on my very first run no less, so I'm impressed with the 2.147.

John's right about the tires. Running MT ET streets took almost 1/2 second off my first time out, (1.92 60').

Tires, a couple of exhaust mods, some tlc, and some practice and I went from a 13.963 seconds to 13.285 seconds. Keep it up and you'll get faster.

The only odd thing about you're time slip is your 1/8mile trap speed seems low compared to your 1/4mile time and speed. I say that only based on comparing it to a similar run I made. I have one run at 14.07 @ 100.8mph, but I had a 78mph 1/8 trap on that run. It may be based on shift point as I think the shift to 3rd is right around the 1/8.
