Default 11 second GTO, In car video

I went to Moroso Friday and finally broke into the 11s. I only was able to get 2 runs in (someone was air lifted off the track) so I think I did pretty good running a 245 nitto drag radial.
Here is a in car video of one of my runs.

60' 1.924
330 5.143
1/8 7.800
MPH 94.29
1000 10.068
1/4 11.929
MPH 122.29

1. Get more heat in those Nittos. Nittos have to be cooked to really stick. There is a better 60' to be had for sure.

2. Courtesy stage, you didn't do a whole lot of prep as far as RPM goes. Just curious if it isn't common policy around there. Around here you courtesy stage (you pre-stage, let the other guy pre-stage, then you fully stage).

3. It was a good run but it seems like you could shave a few tenths in the shifting department too.

Not trying to bash you, just a few tips to try to get that ET down a bit more (as well as being courtesous to the other racers at the track). With that MPH your car is definitely making some power and its got some lower ETs in it for sure. Strong car man. Keep on bangin those gears.

Thanks Guys, I appreciate all the feed back and will work on the above mentioned. I'm still a to the track stuff. I will try to get those tires nice and hot on my next run and will give the other driver some courteousness. Maybe I won't need a driver Mod.
