Was my very first time going to/drag racing at a track.
Had 4 runs and ran pretty consitant times
1st run
Reaction +.150
60ft 2.005
1/4 et- 12.943
1/4mph - 108.61
2nd
Reaction. +.117
60ft 2.028
1/4 et 12.920
1/4mph - 108.80
3rd
Reaction +.003
60ft - 2.082
1/4 et- 12.975
1/4mph - 108.69
4th (had a foul got to excited and left early)
Reaction. -.005
60ft - 2.051
1/4 - 13.007
1/4mpg - 108.29
I thought I did ok for a first timer..Was stalling it up to 1300 and taking off..Running stock 245s at the moment. Have a cheap pair of 275s lined up for me this week to buy. All my mods are in my sig..w/o telling me to buy more stuff that I already know I need..any tips or helpful hints that you can pass along to help me lower my times with the mods I have done? Seems like the car has more potential

very cool that your first 1/4 mile pass ever was in the 12's![The Pimp](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_pimp.gif)
extremely consistent between the passes in all phases , 60 foots , traps ,et's especially considering you dont have tires in place to hook the car and have poor 60 foots for an f body
get those tires on and see what happens but you will really need a dr or slick on it to hook well. Maybe another member in your area will let you borrow or rent a pair of dr's for a pass while they are cooling down or something ???

Just bought some 17x9.5 ZR1's with Nitto radials on it. Has a few more passes left in the tires so we shall see how I do come this saturday. Racing at the crap dragway of Michigan that no one really likes, but its just down the road from me so I'm not complaining haha

Nice first outing man. The autos make these cars perform so well at the track. Our times are pretty close and your trap is pretty much like mine. I have a Yank 2800, LT's with xpipe/dumps, lid, and dyno tune. When you get new 275's, I recomend BFG's KDW. I LOVE them. Excellent road manners and yeilded a 1.84 60' in my car @ 18psi. I went 12.74 @ 108.2

Ok dropped down my time. Guess Im retarded and do not know how to do burnout haha. Wasnt able to get the tires spinning..My guess is that I was holding down the break to far or something. Ran a total 8 times so heres the list. I ran the tank roughly at 1/4, just a tad more maybe. At one point during the burnout I wasn't paying attention and I actually had the gas pedal to the floor, would that harm anything?
