Well fellas, looks like this top swap business didn't work out as well as I had hoped, at least in my case. I just got back from the track and my PB tonight was 14.518 @ 95.1 MPH.
I couldn't get traction until well after the 60' mark, and even then it barked 'em pretty good on the 1-2 shift. I don't know if I need better tires, or if my car just isn't performing like I thought it would. I figured even if I couldn't hit 13's like I wanted, I would still be hitting solid mid-low 14's.
So I'm going back Sunday, and it's supposed to be nice and hot, and I'm gonna lower the tire pressure 10 psi or so. Maybe that will help me hook better, and get some better times.
I must admit; I'm pretty disappointed with my car's performance over the last couple of days.
