Looking good. Try working on you 60 ft time and you should see some improvement ;)

little more pratice you can easily get low 14's, the MPH is there for it.

take your tires off for weight reduction and you got high 13's easy ;D

you also have to be careful looking at the mph and saying that it is good for a so and so time because if you have a horrible 60ft with you spinning a lot, you'll end up with a higher mph at the traps, so then if you get a solid 60ft time your peak mph will drop accordingly.

Eh... I've personally ran a 2.017 on aquatreads (they came on the car) and my car has no real power, and 185 tires aren't the best for traction either. He just needs to work on his launch a little bit, and he'll be doing great. If he ran some sticky tires, he could possibly hit 13's.

i think with better launch i could see low 14's i would be very pleased with breaking the 13's. i couldn't launch like about 2500 or 3000rpm if i did it would do nothing but spin like hell
