Default first time out w/ LQ4

I went up to HRP last night to see what my truck would do. I was honestly shooting for a low 14, or a 13.99. I got my exhaust done and Charlie tuned it- it felt quite a bit stronger. I got teched in and immediately went to the line so there was no cool down lol. The truck was in full street trim, tail gate on, spare mounted, everything in the cab, half a tank of gas, blah blah..

1st run: Stock American Generals, easing into it off the line.

60ft---2.399
330---5.991
1/8---8.903
mph---85.55
1000--11.416
1/4----13.578
MPH---103.96

2nd run: Stew let me borrow his worn slicks to help cut my 60ft down. I did a crappy burnout and flashed the converter, didn't stall.

60ft---2.064
330---5.566
1/8---8.468
mph---84.23
1000--11.026
1/4----13.189
MPH---104.27

3rd run: I did a decent burnout and stalled up but the truck inched forward and I went out of the pre-stage area and messed me all up because I was going to reverse and the tree lights started dropping LOL. I said screw it and punched it but the transmission wouldn't shift out of 1st gear (yes it was in drive) so I let out. Worst run of the night.

60ft---2.107
330---5.999
1/8---9.088
mph---81.14
1000--11.730
1/4----13.991
MPH---96.05

All in all I had a blast and was happy to be so close to the 12's my first time out in the truck. I know with some launching practice and some better 60fts I'll be there as is. I'm uploading videos of the runs- they'll be up later.

Can I get a 13 sec truck club avatar thing??

Nice runs! Doesn't look like you have much work to do to get that think into the 12's
