Default practice, practice, practice....

and drop that 60' time down.

A really good driver can easilz have times 0.2-0.3 seconds faster than a first-timer, and it's usually all in the launch.

It's one of the reasons I put more stock in a persons MPH than ET, it's a better indicator of HP

At least you had the other guy beat for the first 60'

Default Eek, 2.3 60' in a quattro? Your mph looks to be low. For example,

I ran 92 mph with an apr chip and exhaust with the stock setup. Perhaps get those heavy wheels and music stuff out next time?
