first time ever at the track...!!!!!

well my lil brother thought it would be a good idea to go see what the car does at the track... (since we street race a lot)... so we go our things together and went out to open night at englishtown... which after yesterday is like disney world to us lmao... so we park look around... see 3 other evo's pull in... people started getting readfor the races... slicks big body car's... blah blah...

so it's MY turn lol... i get stuck racing a tow truck... lol... im like is he going to tow someone... o wait he has number's on his windows!!!!!!!!!!!!

light's go... here's the times

R/T .369
60' 1.815
330 5.169
1/8 7.979
mph 88.35
1000 10.410
1/4 12.456
MPH 108.28

my mod's... hks intake... dc downpipe...hks hi power exhuast... turbo xs boost controller... and finally TUNED BY 4WS... thanks again man... ill get the log's to you...

that was my best of the night... other 2 times i ran a 12.9 i bogged the start... then a 12.6.... but overall i was happy...
i was trying to get the amn light sequence in order... so ill be back out next week again...
only sucky part was my friend didnt give me his damn helmet so i had to buy one... ish cost 125!!!!!!!!!!!! i was like DAMN IT... but the lady behind the counter was cute... lmao...

Still on the stock clutch? Decent time for your trap speed. Lower the 60' to a 1.7x and you could pull a better time.

those are good times, especially for your first time at a 'real' track. Thats where you should be racing at, not on the street.

you can sit there for a minute, it won't affect your ET

you may have shifted at a higher rpm? mph is usally a good indicator of hp.
