first time at the track....1/8th mile times

here's the first run. i got sideways on the launch and missed fourth gear and coasted through the traps.

reaction......8109
60ft...........1.8971
330ft..........5.3511
et@594ft....7.7490
1/8th et.....8.3321
1/8th mph...77.16

second run was alright, but still no traction on the launch. i wanted to shift at 7000rpm, but i was in the moment and shifted into 3rd at 7600rpm. i hit the rev limiter (7800rpm) just before the traps.

reaction......5430
60ft............1.8930
330ft..........5.2710
et@594ft....7.5898
1/8th et.....8.1080
1/8th mph...86.83

i need to get a few more runs and my shifting right. i just want to dip down into the 7s

you're a better launch away from easy 7s
