Just got back from the track
#11
My full tank of gas was hurting a lot. I didn't know what RPM to launch the car at, so I was guessing. The track was prepped pretty good for a street legal midnights, so it was hooking fine. But then again, it's not like I'm pushing huge HP numbers.
If I ever drag it again, it will be on less than 1/4 tank of gas, and I will launch it at 6k+. At this altitude, I'm pretty sure I could still hit a low 15 or so. The car definitely got a lot of looks and I was asked a lot of questions. I had the only S there (out of over 100 cars), so it felt kinda good to stand out a little, even though my times sucked.

Also, along with a full tank of gas, if your top was down then that affects your time.
I was doing some top end speed tests, and i noticed top down, she was having a hard time getting to 120 mph
top up, she was struggling to get to 150 mph.
so, im not sure if your top was up or down, but it does make a difference
