I still want a 13 though.

The new ignition system might help.

I beg to differ but the run which you beat me on when I tried a manual launch (read f**ked up) you did a 2.11 60ft

suspension setup, no camber one side, 2.5 degrees the other, didn't even bother checking rear tracking, didn't do corner weights, but one side of car was on bump stop, other side had an inch before it touched the bump stop.

The challenge box is awesome, I'll be back, aiming for the 13's!

My brother has all the tickets, I was guessing at 2.2. If I was doing 2.11 starts then I'm happy.
