I imagine running in cooler and drier air will put you in the 111-113mph range as well.
You 60 foots don't sound great either given your 1/4 mile times. Looks like a lot of spin off the line.
What were your 60 foots? I'm guessing upper 2.2s to 2.3s, possibly worse.
What rpm do you shift at?

Ehhhh, I was cutting 2.0 60fts, he was hitting 1.9 (which for every 10th, it's about 2 seconds off the ET) The Auto also was pretty consistent with his times.
But we did do multiple runs back to back - so I don't doubt there was some heat soak. In fact, one run the car stumbled...like hesitated/paused in the middle of 3rd - I hit 13.2 @ 105 on that run.
I shifted at about 6800RPM in 1st - 6500RPM 2nd and held as long as I could for 3rd.
All said and done, I think I ran 7 times. And from what I've seen here, these mods, zero prep and running a JB4/Manual, I'm in line or quicker than most.
