I had virtually the same experience as you. Admittedly it is the first time i had run a car down the strip. I found launch control bogged it down and it launched slowly. With traction control off it was better.. i found the clutch takeup was hard to feel and ran a few runs from a smoking shambles to moderate traction.

I can't recall my best time but it was 13 something. As far as axle tramp goes, mine didn't tramp at all, however i did a track day at qld raceway in the rain and it tramped terribly. As i understand, replacing the blade bushes with stiffer super pro or nolathane bushes fixes or improves the tramp issue
