Yeah, there's another track that I think is closer, but it's only the 1/8th. But apparently, it's better maintained, and that's all I needs to practice, so I think I'm gonna hit that up next time.

If found the timeslip from my third run. This is the one where I actually launched decently (except for the wheel hop) and would've gotten <16 sec if it weren't for my HU getting in the way and making me miss 3rd gear.
R/T- .573
60- 2.531
330- 6.922
1/8- 10.522
MPH- 66.35
1000- 13.710
1/4- 16.292
MPH- 88.90

It's a higher trap speed than normal for that time. I ran a 16.3 @ 84mph.

trap should be in 90's if that car is possible of 14's. i dun think you'll run a 14 sec 1/4 with a 88mph trap. my coupe pulled 16.04 @ 87.98mph, for some comparison..

my camaro a 14.2 @ 96mph, 14.1 @ 96mph, and 13.997 @ 97.89mph...with very lil tire spin.

An 88 trap is kinda slow, my RX traps at 90 and theoretically has less HP then your car.

Well, I hope your car is faster than me. It takes me almost 3 minutes to run a 1/4 mile.
