That's weird! How is it that you ran a 15.5 and a 13.97? That's a huge difference. Did you miss a gear?

good times for the mods. But if you want 13.8's or maybe even 13.7's keep your foot on the gas the whole way. Im actuly surprized you got into the 13's with that 60'. If you can work it down to the 2.0X rang that would alone put you in the 13.8 add power shifting and 13.7 or a hair faster could be your goal.
"dont lift when you shift" is my motto. Wrong section also...

when you powershift you never lift off the gas pedal. Thats how you pull the really fast times. When your combo is out of ET powershift it and you should drop more.
