What track did you run at? First time at that track or have you been there before? Any pics or vids for proof?

It took a while to get down to the end for the finish..but I had a damn good trap speed.
It was hard hookin up out of the hole..track was slippery due to wet conditions. Had to take the 60ft really slow before I could go WOT..
I've made multiple runs over the past few days, I plan on going back this wednesday..no vids at the moment, we are looking into a film crew.

When one lane gets to slick you may want to try the other lane, but beware track officials are gonna try and tell you, you have too much motor for that lane. If you get through staging with out penatly it's smooth sailing from there
