My first track experience was in my 94 SC which was an auto... w/ intake and exhaust

@Bremerton back when they had the .500 system still


and I learned a lot between the first time with the t/a and the second. You can see the improvement here:

Steve we all miss shift. In fact me and jason were talking about how he remembers the first time he saw me run at the track before i even new who you guys were, and he told me "I don't think i ever say someone miss so many gears" . I think i have learned to shift these things, but then again i have over 130 time slips since then, And you know what i still miss gears evry once and while

All it taks is seat time, trust me

It is damn good for you to bring your car out and race it. How many cars at those shows besides Marks, make a regular apperance at the track.........mybee 1 out of 50, and thats pushng it.

I hope you keep with the racing thing, You will be suprised at how fast these things will go with just being able to drive them right.

I never have. I just drive slow, lol.

Won't break any speed records either.

Congrats on getting into the 12's so soon. That is quite an accomplishment! It took me quite a while to get into the 12's. Friday I ran my first 12 second run at Bremerton. It was pretty exciting, 12.6 @113, with a crappy 2.1 60ft on BFG's! It's damn hard to launch a C5 M6 consistantly!
