well i was there and was pretty disappointed ran quite a few of 14.0X with 2.4 60fters @ 100-104mph, the track was quite cold and hard to gain traction off the line. envy-t was also having the same problem with a best of 12.57 and similar 60fters.
will be heading back tomorrow to get pics and vid and maybe run again :Up_to_som
