Default My first time on ET streets

went to the the track last sunday, it was my first time on ET streets, out of 3 runs i maneged a best of 13.5 at 107 with a 2.01 60ft with 20 psi in the tires, i was dumping it a 4k. Now before you guys get all wild up about my time remember that im in El Paso and the elevation is 4000ft. anyhow here are the vids. and yes i missed third gear in one

is your car rolling backwards before you launch? Pull the ebrake up a click or 2. You should work on slipping it rather than dumping it, youll get much better launches and minimal bogging. Its much easier said than done though haha.

Good runs though
