any pointers. . . slip times

alright, i dont have a scanner right now, so i cant put a picture of the slip up at the moment. so, im just going to post the numbers. . . im VERY new to drag racing, so im looking for pointers on how to better everything.

r/t = .602
60' = 2.178
330 = 5.672
1/8 = 8.450
mph = 90
1000 = 10.801
1/4 = 12.811
mph = 112.50

this was my fastest slip for the entire day. my first was a 13.338 @ 112.79. all my 1/4mile speeds stayed around the 112-113 area. . . for the most part. my car hasnt been dynoed (just street tuning) and i ASSUME its around 380rwhp. this is also on 18" street tires!!! i was riding the clutch for a good bit because i was seriously afraid of breaking something since i was on street tires. could i have just hammered it and let it go at around 4k rpms or something? thats what i was revving to when i launched.

thanks,
paul

Assuming a race weight of 3100 pounds, your probably closer to 300RWHP. The trap speed changes very little regardless of you 60 foot times.

Looks like you should throw on some MT street radials, get a Kaaz rear end if you don't already have one, and you should run low 12's!

How ever much you shave off your 60ft time, you will take off double that for your ET. 60ft times of 1.6 are pretty common as long as you launch off rev limiter or 2 step.
