Well done Froop!!

Very difficult to get good 60 foots in a manual rear drive on road tyres. Maybe you could borrow some DRs? But then expect to have clutch issues.

Your engine package in an Auto would be good for easy 11s.... probably 11.7 or so.

Your tyre pressures were way too high for good 60 foot. I ran about 27psi in my WRX to get a 1.58 60 foot on KU31 road tyres. Just beware that you will lose a little trap speed with lower pressures. Best is to run 40+psi in front and 25-30 in rear. And I am not sure if you did a burnout, but a short burnout even on road tyres will clean the tyres and get the water off them. You don't need to do a long one and overheat them though.

Awesome effort and well done.
