New PB for me...nothing too impressive

heres the slip from my best run of the day on Apr. 9th at GLD in WI. Also was with Ferbs.

R/T .085
60' 2.315
330 6.456
1/8 9.843
MPH 72.65
1000 12.771
1/4 15.261
MPH 91.64

my previous best was a 15.4 @ 88.5 mph with a 2.29 60' at the same track. Air altitude was like 2186 or so. According to the formula, i'd be at a 14.8 at a sea-level track. This was with removing pass seat, rear seats, spare, jack, floormats. I used 15" sawblades as opposed to the 16" 5 spoke SE rims. Traction did really suck there that day, I even used Xmax's Drag Radials and pulled a 2.4 60'. My mods are I/Y/E. Im hoping to hit 14.9 at Byron in May. Whats the fastest auto with out an ecu upgrade or VI? Xmax hit 14.909

according to their website, thats what the air altitude was at that day. I entered in the info from that day, and that was the number it gave me. unless i did something wrong?

and thanks nick. I thought it was a good reaction time for the .000 tree, but Dave still told me it was slow. your new pb is more interesting then mine. when are you going to spill the beans man?

quick car. congrats. you will probably get a better e.t. at Byron. for whatever reason ppl get quicker times at Byron than at GLD...

my three r/t at GLD were .074 .032 .022. with auto's its easy enough to time the ambers though...

yeah, timing at the tree there isnt hard. i hope i get a better time at byron. i'd be happy at that. even a 15.0 would be awesome.

if you could get out of the hole a little cleaner, and that's a big "if", you can get very close to 15.0 if not 14.999. a 2.3xx short time isn't anything to write home about, so there is definitely room to improve. anyway, going to the track is a lot of fun, regardless if you can get a hall of fame launch or not...

ha, i've pulled a 2.2 out of my a$$ on my 16s. Im not sure what to do yet. my 16s gave better launches, the 15s gave better trap speeds, along with my new pb, but i was at 15.5s after that. i hope xander will let me run with his drag radials once or twice at byron. and the track is fun, regardless of new times or not
