Default my first time running at the track . . . EVER

well i only got to run twice since i had to leave for work from sac raceway, but i had fun eventhough wednesday nights are fun nights so that means no track prep period!! anyway here's my times for my very first 1/4 mile ever
reaction: .596
60ft: 2.186
330: 5.779
1/8: 8.670
mph: 85.229
1000: 11.154
ET: 13.263
MPH: 107.245
pretty good i think for my first time and on street tires, i had my PSI at 24 and footbraked to only 1200, the driver in the other lane was a 02 Z06 and he did a 12.854 @112.807 and he was on DR's
now my second time i thought i did horrible on and was dissapointed in myself for
reaction: .597
60ft: 2.211
330: 5.830
1/8: 8.732
MPH: 85.020
1000: 11.222
ET: 13.335
MPH: 106.941
that one i footbraked to 1700 and i really shouldn't have my buddy was in the other lane in his 01 WS6 TA and did 14.124 @97.560 so that makes me feel better. i want to go back but not on a fun night cause like i said, no track prep

Not bad at all for your first time. What has been done to the car? Sticky tires would be my next move to hook up, but as long as you are having fun keep racing!

SLP Lid, K&N filter, Fernco Bellows lol, half-assed P&P TB, LS6 intake, LT's with TD's out the back w/LM1's, eibach prokit strano bilstein shocks and an adjustable panhard bar, it's also an a4 and i was runnin on my Eagle F1's with less than 2500 miles on em but like i said sac raceway on wednesday night has virtually no track prep . . . pretty much "ok you and you run" thats there track prep lol

Great run, now get a Yank SS3600 and some Drag Radials and you be in the 12.4 range.

Looks like you're doing good so far. Get that 60' down and you'll have a 12 sec car.
