Default Finally made it to the track...

First off i am in desperate need of sticky tires...

First run. Spun like hell of the line shut down early
60' 2.58
1/8 9.335
1/4 13.962
MPH 106.12

Summary of first run ever

Second run. Spun the slightest bit less than first run, shifted better
60' 2.42
1/8 8.91
1/4 13.4
MPH 111

Summary of second run ever, ET sucked, MPH good for mid 12's

Time for some drag radials

Congrats on making it to the track. 111 mph is good enough to get you into the 12's. Time for some sticky tires.

As Coach said, time for something sticker, and be careful of the ticking time-bomb your 10-bolt will become! Good luck getting 12s!
