Went drag racing for the first time....
I went to Atlanta Dragway today for the first time.
What a blast! I never figured I would do it (drag the car), but the opportunity came up, and it was a beautiful clear day, so I went for it. They tell me I did alright on street tires. (Michelin Pilot Sport PS2's). (My poor tires!) ![]() Best run was 12.447@116.99 I made five runs total. In order, I did: 13.411 @115 (My first run ever - over did the launch and had major tire spin) ![]() then... 12.673@116.92 12.447@116.99 12.710@116.57 12.699@117.33 And I made a video. In the vid, I get whipped in all the runs by 10 second and 9 second Mustangs, respectively...the middle run where my time is not shown was actually my fastest and I got to whip up on a Toyota Supra that ran a 16.005@87.27 MPH.

That's awesome
I live in the Atl too. What was going out up there today? You should come to SilverDollar Raceway on the 21st of Nov. Lot's of ATL guys going for a track day.
It's addicting isn't it? You will most likely want to go faster...and faster...and quicker. Lock up the MasterCard is the best advice for you my friend. Crack has competition and it's ET!!!
