Friday night track night

So I went to the track last night, it was a pretty cool night about degrease C*.
I was running all season Continental Extreme Contact DWS, I tried lowering the pressure to about 12-15 psi and I couldn't get a good launch, I my tires would skip across the track as they hooked up, furthermore engaging the ESP, thus lower power. This setup yielded me times between 12.45-12.8.
My last run I pumped them up to 32PSI and ran a 12.05. The tires hooked up great and ESP didn't interfere nearly as much.
Im quite proud of this run, my car just crossed 251,000km.
