1st time @ the track


1/8th mile track, no trap speed :-(
First three runs are heads up, no handicap.

1st run against a 96 Cobra -WIN by 4.270 (kid couldn't drive for shit, missed 2nd gear and did not finish the race)
Reaction time .607 ( I slept )
60ft: 2.332
1/8 time : 8.990
Forgot to turn off TCS (dumbass) No power shifts

Second run against a 76 Camaro small block,full roll cage+slicks-LOST by 2.069
R/t:.038
60ft:2.606
1/8 time:9.763
Forgot to turn off TCS (double dumbass) Power shifted but bogged a little in 2nd (TCS)

3rd run against a twin turbo diesel Ford F-250 4X4-LOST by 0.037
R/t:.000
60ft:2.553
1/8 time:9.694
Turned off TCS, Dropped the clutch @ 4500, went sideways thru half of first gear, power shifted thru 2nd, and hit the rev limiter @ 100ft from end (dumbass)

1st elimination and final run for me, against a mid 60s Impala big block, street trim. LOST by 0.054 + redlight
R/t: - 0.173 (redlighted)
60ft:2.251
1/8 time: 9.204
Launched @ 3500, tire pressure down to 19 lbs, powershifted thru 1-2-3.

I hadn't been racing in a while, was fun, will do it again.
I'm sure i can do better as I get to know the car.

Need more seat time, it seems to react real quick, I'm launching on the last yellow.
.000 and a redlight... That thing is a whole lot different from my Nova...
Well... I'll learn...
