Default First 1/4 slip

Went to Commerce a few weeks ago for fast firday. We got there late and it turned out YearOne was having some kind of event that weekend so it was packed. We sat in tech for about 45min, then got to the staging lanes, and they started letting the Pro Street cars go over and over. We sat in the staging lanes for over an 1hr. Eventually we started to move, and I got one freakin run in.

R/T .449
60' 2.212
330 5.901
1/8 9.070
MPH 79.93
1000 11.679
1/4 13.961
MPH 97.26

Got a decent launch for the 1st time out, never really practicing, and running w/ $35 tires. Got my 1-2-3 shifts good(usually grinds 3rd), but hit rev limit going to 4th and then again going to 5th. Also didnt nail the 5th gear shift either. I'm having to go to 5th b/c the car was leaning out on the dyno above 6k, so we set 6k as my rev limit. Should be 7200. Oh well, at least im in the 13s woot woot

Low trap.


EDIT: I don't want to sound like a jerk so I'll add more. Congrats on 13s, but that car should have 12s easy. Street tune to get it from not leaning out and I hope you didn't pay for a tune that left you no power ESPECIALLY at the top like that. Decent 60' and all, not too mention your first time so that's really good in my mind. How you managed 13.9 at only 97 with a 2.2 60' bewilders me. Get a street tune and looking at your thread it's probably blowing good bit of hot air from the tiny turbo.
