How did I do? 3rd time at track. I got out to Milan this last Sunday for my second visit to the track since I started.
My first run I am too embarrased to post.
My second was:
Reaction +.280
60 ft 2.020
330 ft 5.657
1/8 ET 8.604
1/8 mph 85.53
1000' ET 11.138
1/4 ET 13.298
1/4 mph 104.61
My setup is in my signature. The elevation is 600 ft and it was 56 degrees and 49% humidity with winds at 12 mph.
I also had the 'service engine soon' light up and later the code was for the catalytic converter (maybe clogged?).
I thought this was a good time on street tires and the 60 ft was better than my previous 2.2. Anyhow, is this as good as I think or is there allot of improvement needed?

Should i be doing better? Like a 1.8 for a 60 ft. I think the reaction is good.
I launched at 1000 rpm and tried not to mash it right away to keep from spinning. I have a vid of the run and I had allot of mid range.
Any advise would help.

I would feel great if I did 13.0 or 12.9 with the car as is.
I am planning on trying again on the 16th.
