1/8- 8.498
MPH- 85.16

hell ya there is more left in it! Its all in the 60ft man! Get some slicks and skinnies! 2.0 60ft is crap, so hold on tight when you get some slicks.

Also, lower the tire pressure to 15-16psi. Launch at a high rpm and if it starts spinning feather the gas.

Good luck and nice 1st 1/4 mile times!

Those are very descent times for your first time. Just remember it's all about practicing to get your 60' down and you will be fine. Good Job
