That sucks man... sorry to hear bout that.
Well the track is usually never prepped friday nights. The track was worse than the STREET! I hook on the street pretty well. I never had traction in 2nd all 3 runs, it pissed me off. First race I wasn't ready, I was startled, I thought a lightning was going to stage w/ me but he didn't so I was like CRAP, the lights are goin lol, I hit the accelerater from Idle, bogged so bad and picked up... did pretty good other than the start (and no traction). After that I said screw the tree just focus (or try to control throttle) same squirreliness and well I shifted too fast to 3rd and got 5th, then to 3rd and 4th hehe. Last race I was pretty calm... but 2nd gear scared the shit out of me, I didn't let out but the rear end was side to side and bouncing feeling... not good. That was after I deflated my tires to like 22 psi, first 2 races were close to 28 psi. I raced against the same guy last 2 races, he beat me in his g/f's Supra Camaro lol has a big wing, then I beat him in his friends Probe lol.
My races are 2... 3 and 1st race is on the right.
I believe my first race would have been lil quicker if I had my shift light set at 6200 instead of 6000 but oh well, just getting used to it.
Well, I'm gonna check for anything wrong w/ my car, we think a transmission mount is broken or loose. I had fun though and cant wait to get 12's when it isn't 30 degree's out. May even try some drag radials.
Was nice meeting Tim and Jason I believe? and you Bob... nice rides you all have, wish I could have staged w/ you but I was monkeying around trying to get my camera set up but since I don't have my back seats in the tripod wouldn't stay stable... next time I'm putting the seats back in.. I also need a lil more weight back there haha.

Yeah, didn't get to know you all, I really liked your rides man. Saturday the FBody club went, well some did, they got like tons of runs in... hardly anyone went and rain got called at around 1pm. I wish I had gone but I was too tired hehe.
