First stop on the Hot Rod Power Tour was the Gainesville Raceway. They had the track open so I took a shot at it. Here's how it played out:

60' 2.204

I blew the tires off it on the start. Had to back out of it and let the wheels hook.

330' 5.828

1/8th mile 8.799@81.12

I was having fun at this point but I somehow forgot to keep my foot to the floor. I pushed it back down and found...

1/4 mile 13.568 @ 105.68

Not what I wanted but not bad for a first time out with an untuned combo. I left at least half a second on the track in poor launch and driving skills but they wouldn't let me back on the track w/o a helmet. I'll continue to tune and go to the next track prepared with the right equipment.
