Default Went to the track

I went to the local 1/8 last night and ran my car... best I got was 8.904 at 78.952mph with a 2.0 60ft and a .552 r/t. This was with my mostly stock (no headers, intake, anything big) 440. Last time i ran, i had 2.94 non-sg gears in and my best was 9.92 @ 75 or so. This was on BFG radial T/A's. I still spin too much off the line, i think it's time for new axles and slicks.
How does this sound to you guys? I was pleased with the full second gain from switching rear-ends.

Although your 60 ft time doesn't seem very good, I think the 1/8 mile time against the speed is actually pretty good. You may have problems ahead when you get the traction up to par, and the ET may not get much better without other changes (=more power).
