well my original time on the 1/8 mile was 7.8 at 89.8 mph 1.7 60ft at 22 psi so I just got install the meth kit ..so since I'm not tune yet I decide to run 25 psi with it.. so it was pretty cold, I launch it at 5500 rpms I was spining a lot of tires and I run 8.0 at 87.09 mph with a 1.605 60ft so I think maybe the track had a lot humidity on it but I was dissapointed

Hmm, seems weird. If you were spinning a lot, you shouldn't have gotten a 1.60, because spinning slows you down significantly off the line. Then, if you DID get a 1.60, your 1/8th-mile would have been a lot better than 8.0 when going 87mph unless you missed a shift or something. Maybe the track timing was messed up or something...

Maybe you got some pulled timing up top that would explain the lower mph.

If you are not tuned that will definitely be the issue, you are running rich with that meth so once you get retuned you will be ok.
