Thats a great run, congratulations, the 14 second club has a new member! Im betting that you could run faster with more traction right? Thats cool though, saving something for next time! 12 runs is something to be proud of because its not a run if it cant be redone.

Only one 14.9 run the rest were around 15.01-15.06.The worst run was with my dad driving it.He had a 15.20 with alot wheel spin.That was his 1st time driving my car at the track. I was trying to say that I ran 12 runs for the day. Traction is getting better but I have to leave at idle.To get the best runs and 60's.Or at 2000 rpm I have about 20+feet of wheel spin. SCOOP
