I have to say, a 95mph trap is pretty slow for your car and mods. The z is out-trapping you by 3mph; that's pretty significant.

You could definitely use some practice on your 60', like others have mentioned, but I think you need more practice on your shifting.
330...6.412
1/8...9.708
mph...74.84
1000...12.515

Cool, you should do a bit better at Speedworld if the track is preped well. It has a concrete launching area so be careful on your launches but it is also cooler at speedworld so you should have faster times than at Firebird. It is my Wifes B-Day tonight so I won't make it out tonight but I will be at Speedworld next Saturday night.

Took it back to the track last night. Only got two runs in thought. But kinda content and mad at the same time. I lost both my slips and not sure where they are so cannot give acuarte #'s but i know what I got.
The first run I got a 2.3?? 60', 14.7??@96.??....the second run i got a 2.1?? 60', 14.3??@96.??. i will try to find them, but afraid that they flew out the window on the ride home cuz I just had them laying in the cup holder. I am happy because I got a good 60' on the second run, but still kinda upset because my mph did not improve. Later on that night, I raced my buddy with a 06 6mt coupe with z-tube and exhaust....everytime we have ever raced, whether from a down shift, rolling start, launch, the outcome was always the same. I always pulled on him....but last night he was pulling on me by 1 1/2 everytime we raced. I ran him like 12 times. So not sure wut is going on, i think overall when i drove my car that day without oil i probably did mess something out. Putting stock cats back on and taking it back to the dealer this week. Crazy, cuz I just ordered some headers too...

What RPM were you lunching the car when you got 2.1 60'? Were you slipping or dropping the clutch?

You definitely need to work on your shifting. When I pull a mid to high 2.3 second sixty foot, my 330 is usually a mid 6.2. That 1>2 shift is hurting you.
