Smile Ran at track 1st time! Timeslips! 13 in 1/4!

I got to run tonight (friday) july 12th in 85* weather and i managed with my horrible driving to pull of a very high 13. Here are some of my runs:

.685 RT
2.141 60'
1/8th mi: 9.051 @ 79.75mph
1/4mi: 13.991 @100.47mph

.783 RT
2.399 60'
1/8mi: 9.582 @ 79.10mph
1/4 mi: 14.543 @ 100.09mph

.899 RT
2.217 60'
1/8th: 9.304 @ 78.76mph
1/4 mi: 14.290@99.63mph

this one i hit 2nd instead of 4th....OOPS!
.721 RT
2.195 60'
1/8mi: 9.187 @ 79.10mph
1/4mi: 14.621@91.76mph

Two things i noticed I NEED traction. My car hops like crazy in 1st and 2nd if i hammer it, and i often spin through 2nd gear with my 245's on. I have to baby it through 1st to keep from hopping, even then 2nd spins through. I'm hoping some lift bars, upper CA's, and better tires will help. My reaction times also kinda suck.
I'm so psyched, racing is SOOOO fun!
