1st Time at the Track on the Bottle

I took my car to the track recently to see how it would run on the bottle. The track wasn't prepped very good. They resealed it about 2 weeks ago and a lot of cars were having a tough time. My best short time was 1.648, which is what my car will do just on the motor. Only made 1 full pass because the car doesn't have a cage. The other passes I only ran a little past 1/8 mile and hit the brakes. Those runs were in the high 11's at about 70MPH with 60' times in the low 1.7's to high 1.6's. Here are the numbers on the full pass:

60' 1.648
330' 4.536
1/8 6.911 @ 103.198
1,000' 8.959
1/4 10.712 @ 126.671

I'll take it back in a few weeks and try again. It should 60' in the high 1.40's and run 10.20's or 10.30's at about 130.
