What was your tire pressure at? Over 20 psi? If so, air those puppies down.

Try lowering tire pressure, like 1 pound at a time. Bump in to light the top light, pump up the brakes real good, and try to leave at arounbd 1000, or so. Also, you need to do a good hard burnout to make sure you don't have water on your tires. You goin to Quaker city this Fri? I'm thinking of going.

hey man good runs! Defineatly go with some lower tire pressure, you got yourself some good ET streets so heat them up real good and they should stick real nice. Congrats on the low 14 second passes and get that thing into the 13's!
