Traction & a tune should get you 12.9-13.3.

If you drive like me, you'll do 12.8, if you drive like Alberto you'll get 12.9 .......

Amazing what a sub-2.0 60' time can do. Nice pass.

Old man I'd Jump in your car and drop .2 easy. How many drag lists are you on? How many am I on? Exactly

OP- given the mods the time is average at best. Don't be happy with mediocrity, keep practicing.
