I'm very happy with the results being my first time at the drag strip. The car ran awesome!

1/8th mile track

Best ET = 7.664 at 91.46mph
Best 60' = 1.703

I need to work on my reaction times. Got better threw the 2 day event. Got 11 passes in ranging from 8.150 to 7.664. I kept getting better as the time went on. Got the 7.664 on my 3 to last pass.

I need to get my 60' down to 1.50 Any ideas on how to do that?

Thanks

Nate

Did you spray it on any of your runs?

Wow, those are some great times. Aside from the wheels/tires, your car is a real sleeper

Thanks guys! I think their is allot more left in the car just need to dial in the suspension and a little practice power shifting. I didn't power shift on any of my runs.
