Default First 1/4 Mile run in the FX2 5.0

Well guys, I finally made my first run down the 1/4 mile in my F150. This took place at the Royal Purple Raceway in Baytown, Texas. The truck is a 2011 F150 5.0 SCREW FX2. Mods: Airaid Jr, MPT Race tune and Magnaflow muffler / Resonator delete. Stock 3:55 rear. Running the FX2 20" wheels with Bridgestone Revo II AT. I only ran once and ended up with a 14.96 @ 93mph. I had a horrible start and got pulled by a Mazda 6? LOL I think. Next time I will get the start right and hopefully do a little better.
I have a video from an Iphone, any ideas on how to load it up please?

Pretty good time. Practice launching and get your 60' down and you could probably get 14.50-14.60. Its crazy ti think that 90s mustang gts ran those times and now were running them in 5500 lb trucks!

Was it a Mazda 6 or speed6? Big difference...speed6's are pretty quick.

not bad! I've been really impressed with how good mine runs w/ the 3.73s. Surprised a 370zx the other day. Thought he was going to blow it up trying to put fender or 2 on me.

[MENTION=104079]jonbar87[/MENTION], I am pretty sure it was a regular Mazda 6. Looked basic but fairly quick off the line.
He didn't walk away, but stayed ahead about a car length.
