Wednesday night at Pacific?

I've decided to go ahead and make the trip to Fry's and pick up a camcorder. If I don't have to let it sit all night to charge I'll bring it over to the track and break it in. In any case, I'll have a camera ready for next Wednesday...assuming the weather holds.

Although I have no idea what their return policy is.

How'd ya do?
Me? Consistently bad.

LOL I couldn't get traction. Best 60' was a 2.3. Bald-*** tires. Oh well, I guess I'll eventually get better, right? With some tires I think she has a high 13 in her, considering I've only been driving stick w/ RWD for 4 months pretty much and never had to really launch before last weekend
I guess I'll get there

14.3 @ 99 isn't a bad place to start with an LT1 and your first season at the track. Heck, that's what I was running my first couple times with my GTO. Practice and track prep make a big difference. By the end of last year I went from a 14.6(first race) to a 13.9(last race).
BTW, I've got the camera working. I had to get a DVD burner to work with the DVD-RW discs it uses(I haven't substantially upgraded my computer is years and only had a straight DVD player). I'll experiment with it on Tuesday and plan on taking it to Pacific with me on Wednesday. Hopefully I can find someone to get some shots of me who I can trust not to walk with the camera.

Thanks for the reassurance, by the way. I was feeling like the worst driver on the planet

Thanks bud. I'm going to head out there one of these days but would like to wait until I can get plenty of track time. So far this season it's been pretty crowded. Hope it gets better as other tracks open.
