and I went... I got the first 3 runs in in less than 20 minutes. Little bit of hot lapping. It was about 55 degrees out. Perfect weather. The last time out I didnt have the new tires, poly mm's, or d/p. I ran a best of 14.8 @ 93 with a 2.35 60'
I figured since adding the d/p & getting better traction off the line with the tires and mm's I could cut that 60 and hopefully run mid 14's since I was stuck at 14.8 for so long.
This is what I ended up running...in order from first to last...

60' - 2.47
1/4 - 14.80 @ 96.59
I still got alot of wheel hop coming out of the hole. Some times worse than others. I didnt do any kind of serious burnout. I just lit them up and knocked the dust of of them after avoiding the water pit. I ran the best when I wasnt running against people I knew. I wanted to not worry about my reaction time and concentrated on getting out of the hole with as little spinning as I could and trying to beat a friend isnt the way to do it...
It was real cool and I met another guy with a GTP that was running low 13's @ 105ish. He was tuning while running today and said his best was high 12's. Cool guy he said he would do a scan for me and see if I'm getting any knock...
I also just ordered my PEM's and ceramic coated crossover this weekend. After that and a scan I should be able to drop pulley down to 3.5 safely. I should be seeing 13's for sure then. I think if I could cut a 1.9 or a 2.0 60' I might see real high 13's now... Who knows probably wishful thinking...
