[QUOTE="GStang, post: 472502, member: 10100"] I am new to this site but thought I would post my results from last Sunday 6/9 at Gateway in St Louis. I recently finally got the car done enough to take it to the track to see how it would do. I had every intention of just trying to make half ass passes to get the feel for the car but once I got on the track those good intentions kinda went out the window!! 1st pass I did a so-so burnout and and foot braked the car and left the line very timid. The car went straight and was pulling hard so I figured I stay on it and run it all the way out..... 1st pass 60' 1.751 1/8 6.720 mph 109.96 1/4 10.273 mph 135.73 needless to say I was pretty happy. Next pass I tried to leave using the trans brake but had the 2 step set at 3500rpm. Again the car left very timid and really pulled well. 2nd pass 60' 1.631 1/8 6.582 mph 108.72 1/4 10.186 mph 135.62 On the third pass my friends were urging me to leave harder on the trans brake. We set the 2 step at 4000rpm but I backed off the throttle before taking the green light so I didnt get the full benefit of the launch but the car still ran good. 3rd pass 60' 1.592 1/8 6.416 mph 112.20 1/4 9.903 mph 142.49 Needless to say I was very pumped to break into the 9's on the 3rd pass ever for the car. I think there is much more to be gained by driving the car better which will come with more pracitce, i.e. more passes. I will post a message introducing myself and a description of the car in another forum. [/QUOTE]
