Default First time at the strip

Ran a 14.2 @100 with a 2.2 60ft. and a 6.1 330. Only got to make one run. But what a blast! I think I'm hooked.

There were 4 SRT-4s there, too. Best of those ran a 14.2 as well.

A kid in a WRX ran a 12.5! Said he was puttin down 315 whp.

Yup. Can't even drive on the street with it on.

I guess I should pull the subwoofer out and lower my rear tires to 25 pounds. They were at 35 for the run.

Also, I felt a weird delay on the 2-3 shift. Did I hit the rev limiter?

Nice run! If you can pull your 60' down just a little bit, you'll be in the 13's easily. It's addicting, isn't it?
