i tried launching in 2nd with my truck a few times and got about the same 60'. i never really tried cranking up the boost. someone sugested i try a 2nd gear launch but i didn't think it would work, now i wonder. i better go out and try it.

That's awesome Nate! 
I guess I had better get back to the track and step it up a notch. 
I know somewhat how you feel about giving up. The night I got my 12.09, I was sure I was gonna bust an 11 but the weather and track got progressively worst thru out the night. All of our good weather is gone now and it is starting to warm up now so it is not going to happen withthe current combo. However, I do have a new round of mods comming in the next few weeks.
Congratulations on breaking the 11's buddy!

Something else worth mentioning, it's running a little richer than I usually run on the street. I usually try and keep the o2's around 890-910, it was at 930-940 for the majority of the run.

I was thinking the same thing though, the mph number was more accurate for rwhp.
