Default Are the 60FT times KILLING me?

alright i went to the track for the first time ever today. This is a 95 Accord coupe with a JDM H22. I was very dissapointed with my times. I was wondering if this could be mostly because of my 60'ft times cause of bad street tires or also my accord tranny with the H22.

here they are:

1st run ever.... r/t .914
60' 2.575
330 6.830
1/8 10.215
MPH 72.05
1000 15.603
MPH 92.17

launched at about 3k RPM spun really hard thru first even got off and got back on the throttle and spun again

2nd run...... r/t .859
60' 2.577
330 6.880
1/8 10.304
MPH 71.69
1000 13.255
1/4 15.725
MPH 91.43
launched low and it bogged out a little bit in first

3rd run r/t 1.277
60' 2.366
330 6.616
1/8 10.033
MPH 72.11
1000 13.006
1/4 15.494
MPH 90.76


please give your opinions

yes, yes, and YES! those are horrible 60'...! Never go racing with bad street tires, thats like playing soccer with sandals!!!! Get slicks, or street-slicks and work with the PSI, heat'em up and go! This should help you lower those time! Keep practicin your launches and find a good RPM to take off from.
