Default First time at the track!!! Times inside

I went to Byron on saturday and ran these times in my sig... It was my very first time at the track ever.
Let me know whacca think about my best time... Is it on par for my mods?
I was having problems with stall wall, hitting rev limit in 1st, and much Knock Retard so it still has another tenth or two mybe more to take off...
Times in sig...

It says in his sig he does have a LT4km. The times are not bad but get your KR problem fixed before you run it at the track again.

I was thinking that was a little sluggish for the mods.

What where your times on the 1.7 60ft pass? Your times do seem a little low. But not bad for your first trip to the track. A couple more track runs and getting everything together, you could be hitting high 12's. Just depends on how strong your car runs. How many miles on the clock?

The car has almost 90k miles....
whenever i hit a low 60 foot time (less than 2 seconds) i would get stall wall and hit the limiter in first and then shift from first to third. Then cannot get 1st back untill i turn the car off and then back on.
i am working on fixing these issues along with the knock retard.
