Default 2nd time at the strip

Well, first time out I managed a 14.2 @ 100 a few weeks ago, with a 2.2 60 ft.

Today, I cut a .580 light and got a 2.1 60 ft. but that did not translate into better times: 14.4 @ 98, accomplished by just driving the car off the line to counter bad tire patter the first time.

Only thing I changed was lowering the rear tires to 30 pounds from 35 last time. The rears are almost bald (17s).

any tips for next time?
