First Time Racing
Yeah I went out to the track today with some people. My first time ever dragging and all that. Here is my best timeslip:
60' ... 2.230
330 ... 6.103
1/8 ... 9.246
MPH ... 78.81
1000 ... 11.916
1/4 ... 14.181
MPH ... 100.15
Ok, I was really hoping I would get into the 13s, and I think I would have been able to with a few more runs, but I am not all that upset considering this was my first time ever dragging, and I ran on my stock 245mm tires, 50k miles, 35psi. The tires would not hook very well at all, and I know it isn't just my launching ability. I was scraping in 2nd and 3rd but I think 4th gear was good. I think with drag radials and some more launching practice I should be able to get 13.9xx. What do you guys think?

If you get your 60 ft to at least a 2.0 then you should be at a 13.8 or so. But beware... the rear ends on M6 cars have a tendancy to break when you run DRs which is the best way to get better traction.
