i think you need some slicks and some traction bars with those 60 ft. times, but for stock.........you gotta start somewhere and improve on it. we need the introduce you to Kenne........

Slicks would be a big help, but even with street tires you should be able to get a better 60ft. Just takes practice on the launch

stock, with that heat & humidity, it probibly won't get much better than low14s -very high 13s.
your 60s are a problem. were you spinning a lot? noticed you said you didn't let of the gas.
NO SLICKs, WITHOUT TRACTION BARS...........

From what I have heard the track in Aruba is not the greatest. If that is the case and with the high heat and humidity your doing OK.

Like the other guys said, work on you launch and get the 60 foot times down. That is the most important factor in getting the best ET possible. You get you 60 foot times down to a 2.0 and you will be right at 14.0

I don't thinks slicks will help much with your allmost stock truck

do yourself a favor and just go buy the baddestest truck in the planetary galaxy the srt(urd)-10 and you will run 12 or 11's stock and no i am not serious about this

give it time and practice, that 6 lb and a good tune should get you well on your way.....but you will want more and more.....ask almost anyone here including me. how cold does it get in aruba?

Bone stock my 00 ran 13.83. It was happiest leaving the line at 800 rpm and rolling into the throttle. Your 60ft time is killing your ET.
