Default crappy 1/8th mile

went to the track last night. its a new track so it was very slippery. I had a 2.4 60ft and ran a 8.97 @ 85mph. there were so many cars there that I could only get one run in. I was on street tires with full pressure and laundry in the trunk.

it was at music city raceway in ridgetop. Most people call it "the hill" or "union hill". They just got all new concrete track and this was like the third day its been raced on. On the first day I was cutting 2.5 and 2.6 60fts. Didnt bother posting the times. So it had better hook last night but I am no good at launching obviously or I need better tires. I raced against a 96-98 GT and here were the times.
