1st time at the track, basically stock

It has an invidia cat back. Thats all I know, it might have a flash because I can hit 7600 before fuel cut.
1st run ever launching an AWD car:
2.027 60'
13.652 @ 102.240
Second run was:
1.98 60'
13.62x @ 100.107
Third run was
2.0xx 60'
13.7xx at 98.xxx, it was my slowest run, I hung on to third too long.
They told me to slow down or go home because I didn't have a helmet after the first run.
I was shifting at ~7k-7.2k, the first run I don't even know what I was shifting at because the AWD launch scared the poo out of me lol. I'm used to 2.4s in a FWD car

Stock rev limiter is 7600 so that doesn't mean you're flashed

Were you running in Phoenix or Tucson? Those are pretty much stock times for that area, so on that note, good job, and the AZ tracks are strict as far as rules regardining helmets, etc.
