What were your 60' times? And your trap speed? The summer tires aren't going to have any grip at those temperatures until you can get them warmed up after a number of passes. 9.4 is pretty slow for the 370 but given the circumstances it probably was all due to your lack of traction.

yeah it definately had to do with the traction and added weight. my 60 ft was like 2.8 sec lol. i put it away after about three runs, i was making the car look bad! haha maybe next week the temp will be up in the 70's or 80's again. weather here has been up and down lately. my speed was about 78 mph
