I went out a couple weeks ago and ran a 13.207 @ 109.28 (60 ft 2.142) on the last time trial.
First round, dialed at 13.19, ran a 13.258 @ 109.21.
Second round I dialed up to a 13.24, got treed badly, .004 to my .093. Car ran a 13.204 @ 101.13. Best 60 ft time yet at 2.087. I was on the brakes HARD too. Wish I'd a stayed in it to see what it would have done.
I'm havin' a great time with this car.

Keep working on it you will get there! Launching the ZR1 isn't EZ thats for sure. I either Spin my tires or bog or get wheel hop. I have yet to get a great launch.

Thanks Shaun, I am going to keep trying. I want a 12 time slip, and I know it's there. Practice, Practice.
