Default Went to track last nite.. any suggestions?

Last nite i went to the track and ran 13.87@ 103.85mph.. does this time seem a little slow for that mph? my 60 ft was 2.30 i wasnt really hooking up. Any suggestions? BTW this is a stock LS, un-tuned, stock clutch, street tires, 440s and Ubertegs chip.. yes i have to say it worked out pretty well.. im impressed with his work.

upgrade the clutch, and if you can't get any DR, then just deflate the tires and start trying new things.... just work on that 60 ft

It's alright you just need practice. Free mods would be dropping pressure down to around 20ish psi. Try feathering the clutch off the launch instead of just droping it and either spinning or bogging. That stock clutch is not gonna like that much power put through drag raials, let alone slicks.

Not a bad time, You next purchases should be tuning, bfg's, clutch. With those mods and some more practice you will be in low 13's easy
