Default video my dragstrip experience last night

Hey guys i went to litte river drag strip last night the conditions were horrible but i still had fun even though i couldn't put up any good times it was very slick out on the track. On the good side of things i ran anywhere between a weak sauce 14.5-14.8 was good enough to beat every stock gt out there as you can see in the second race against a 07 gt i beat him 3 times that night. I also ran a brand new z06 and that guys was having problem getting out of the 13's he was spinning 1-3rd gear lol. Everyone was complaning about traction but i guess that what you get when you go to a ghetto track. It was also very humid and hot outside normal texas conditions.

lol yeah the mustangs just seem to make alot of noise the last time i went out i was beating mustangs to but running lower times because grip was a little better. Im going to try to go to san antonio and run in houston where i can actually try to go for really good times. I hit a 14.3 on this track and man it is really slick i was pedling big time of the start and then i would hit it and i would spin into second before i would get any type of grip. I tried lowering my psi on my wheels all the way down to 25psi and still spinning like crazy but everyone was complaning about the track i was just trying to run with what i was dealt. THE FUNNIEST THING IS THAT MUSTANG DRIVER WAS TALKING **** ABOUT AUTO'S ALL NIGHT AND I NEVER TOLD HIM I WAS A AUTO AND HE COULD NOT BEAT ME ONCE ALL NIGHT LOL.

What crappy track is that? If you want good times, go to San Antonio Raceway. If you ever go, let me know sometime and I can meet you here in SA.

ok cool solo-350z yeah i will hit you up when i plan on going down to san-antonio to run for sure. Yeah this track is super ghetto you know when the track is bad when brand new zo6 can't break 13's lol in all honesty i can launch 10 times better on the regular street than this track ha. Its called little river its a very small track as you can see from the vid it is hard to even get a good video because the stands are so close to the strip with a million poles blocking the view. it is so small their is no way to get around the water box which i hate going throught with my 19's so i was running with wet tires also lol thank god i didn't kill myself.
