I would aim for DayBlueZ, to be the fastest N/A guy on street tires.... But honestly, I dont think I have it in me.

So I would gladley take over your spot as #2 N/A on street tires.

Also, dont take this to heart, its just a friendly competition.

OP:

don't bother taking of at the last yellow, that only affects ur reaction time, and that doesn't have anything to do with the rest of the run. the timer starts at a 1 foot roll out.

don't bother adjusting ur tire pressure ur first time out, it won't make a difference (both veetec and i have ur best runs on stock tire pressure, not sure about peak350). first concentrate on ur 60ft. this goes back to not paying attention to the last yellow, go when ur good and ready. u can wait a whole minute and it won't affect ur time at all (but it will **** off the track officials and every body waiting behind u).

i'm with everyone, i doubt that u'll get a 13.6 on ur first time at the track ever, but u might get lucky. i ran a 13.7 on my first time at the track with my car, second time ever (first time was on my sisters rsx, years ago, when i didn't know how to drive, and i got 2 runs in, so it may as well have been my first). but i attribute taht to luck, not skill, cause i sucked the second and third outing at the track.

also, about the burn out, don't do exactly like described on rangeracceleration.com. with our tires u just need to do it long enough just to clean off debri off the tires. they collect lots of small rocks and such cause of the vht. i typically back into the burnout box, then gently pull let out the clutch at about 4k, when i say gently i mean just slow enough not to shock the drive train and fast enought not to slip the clutch to much, then just do a rolling burn out to about 6.5-7k in 1st gear.

for the rest, u can do everything like it says on that site. i highly suggest changing out ur clutch fluid like it says on the website also. u'll wanna see it when u see how much crap u suck out of there. i never got around to getting any fancy brake fluid. so far i'm using valvoline (spelling) synthetic and its working fine. eventually i wanna get some neo synthetic brake fluid

and lastly... practice, practice, practice

Good luck at the track dont be discouraged if you dont put down your expected times your first trip out. The first 3-4 times out to the track you should see dramatic improvments in your times.
