16.32 @ 85 vs 16.24 @ 79.

This after new tires, pin grind, and 1/2 turn on the power screw. Oh yeah I'll be joining the pull cable club.

How did the weather compare to the other time? If they are street tires colse to bald ones will hook up better than new ones.

"bald ones will hook up better than new ones."
Now you tell me.

I went to a 265/75 highway tread

Weather was high 50s low humidity. I wasted the tires through the top of first and midway through second. My 60 improved .05 though. I'm going to look for something bigger in the tire department. 285s or 300s.
