Default First run ever, and also my first 12 sec run.

Well I was at a not so local (500miles one way) (still the closest track) dragstrip this last wekend. It was my first drive on the stripp ever. And of cours also with the car.
My first time was impressive for being first time ever, 13.03 @ 110 mph, 60ft 2,282.
My second time was beter and ended att 12.77 @ 110,6mph ,60ft 2,218
But my third time was the best one, 12.66 @ 113,7mph, 60ft 2,10.
I still had a crap start as you can se on the third pic, with wheel spin and bad grip, and i did not rev the gears as I should have.

In the 4th run i had beter gripp with my M/T street slicks, due to the heavy burnout(second pic) but then i had to low rpm at the start so i got a jurky start.. and ended at 12.80.

Next time will be better.









Mods: cam, LTheaders, intake, and some other goddies. 385 rwhp, M/T street slicks.
