Default Hal's 6speed street car runs 9.8 @ 148mph!!!

Last weekend I decided to put some stickier 27" DOT tires (hoosier quicktimes) and take my personal street car to the track. I have only made 3 passes in the car prior (11.0 on 18" street tire setup) and this day showed what a little seat time will do.

Quick info: Full weight, full interior (including spare tire), uncaged, 27" DOT tires, VP Q16 fuel, no nitrous installed on the car.

Run 1 - 10.8 @ 145 (1.9 60')
Run 2 - 10.1 @ 146 (1.77 60')
Run 3 - 9.8 @ 148 (1.66 60')
Run 4 - Launched harder and got a little squirly, aborted run

**Full blog of the day's events found here**

Do you have some sort of launch control? I can't tell if you are redlining off the line or not. I'm working on my launches and need all the hints I can get

I am using Haltech Platinum's 2step launch control - it allows me to build boost at the line
