Which track is better? i've been up to G'ville twice now to run and I'm not impresed with the track's bite. I know i won't do that great with streets and a stock suspension. But when I run, I spin going into 3rd, with a 100% stock setup. I tried moving my shift points from 5000 to 6000 rpms (24 passes so far) and have no grip when i shift. I've trapped at over 98 4 times (98.82 best MPH) and average 97.05 on the passes. But my times are averageing 14.48x With that much speed should I not be running faster? So this is frustrating me and i am considering going to try speedworld...

I've raced at Gainsville during a FFW years ago and that track sucks! I never raced Orlando but maybe Jackie Chan will check in. I think Orlando is his local track.

Orlando is not a bad track... but prep is not that good on T&T nights plus a lot of imports,

I would say try to go to bradenton. A friend of mine knocked off .3s consistently compared to his best at speedworld. We are talking about a low 10sec car, on the other hand jackie chan doesn't seem to have any problems hooking up at speedworld.
