Did you optimize your runs by shedding any excess weight, 1/4 tank fuel, and lowering tire pressures?
If you didn't, and running on a cooler day/night, you would easily be in the 13's at over 100..... excellent...

Just have to ask ... where are you located (84F?) the rest of us are pretty cold this time of year!
Good job at the track!
Can you (or anyone else reading) provide the the best technique for launching aside from environmental conditions?
In the old days, I would know what the optimum RPM should be for the torque converter I had, but now, I'm not sure what to hold at.

Correction: You went to the drag strip.
With a little more practice on ideal weather, elevation, you can probably reach mid-to-high 13's.
Nice numbers for a first.
