Ok guys, this is my first time at the strip! Before I went to the strip, I estimated my 1/4 mile time to be at least 14.4 or 14.5. Well after running my first run I forgot to get my timeslip! LOL (remember, that was my first time at the strip). After the second run I did a 15.4 stupid me, I forgot to turn off my vdc! I lost so much power on my launch because of VDC. On my third run, I ran with a modded Z28. I was sure that I was going to loose! He was intimidating! He had a helmet for crying out loud! for sure u know he has to be modded to wear a helmet LOL! well lights turn green, he took off quick ahead of me. I peeled out too much and couldnt keep up cause he was gone! After the race was over I thought to myself "Damn I just got smoked!" After picking up the timeslip (which I didnt forget this time!) I noticed I recieved the white slip. I was like how did I win? It said the Z28 took off early and fouled! LOL He got at least a .3 or .4 second head start! Well I won!

 

sweet for your first time....do you think you are going to be hooked now? I started dragging 1.5 yrs ago and love it. its replace 1to2 nights of drinking and looking at pretty girls(because drag racing surely isnt the best place to look at ladies, at least not here)

 

personally, after doing 30+ runs at mir last week i have no desire to go to the dragstrip again for another year...

i'd rather go to a real track, a road course. john can back me up on this one :P

 

is it me or does that trap speed seem low?

 

i would love to road race my car, but i think it would be like wrestling a fat hog around. If i was rich, i would be a motorsports *****, drag racing, road racing, motor cycle racing and umbrella girls.

 

trap looks fine to me for the et
