I ran a 14.4 last time. Not too shabby. Might have to run again soon.

^ 14.4 is crappy? That was my best time, I only hit it once. My norm is roughly 14.8-15.1

13.5 is solid for a bolt-on DE with street tires....that should be your goal. I think I went 13.4x on poopy azenis, but probably could have gone high 13.3's on the new tires....drag radials rock though.

how are you guys getting 13's w/ bolt-ons? How are you driving? Aren't you suppose to just floor it through all the gears. I know I burnout all the way till 5th w/ my Hankook tires.
