i went to cecil today and ran my car once down the drag...i didnt really push my engine too much today cause i wasnt sure wat the track was like and all that good stuff...after that...i sat to the side and watched the races and watched my friend (in a civic) keep up w/ ls integras....pretty damn loud.....also...a guy on a bike wrecked..the bike slid about 500 ft from him....

here's my slip

Work on that 60', you can lop off a full second by running a 2.0 sixty foot. What rpm were you shifting at?

i was shifting around 5500-6000....i know i was shifting right cause i chirped 2nd and 3rd..but i started from idle...maybe i shouldve held it at like 2000?


and i wasnt really trying..i just wanted to get a feel for drag cause it was my first time down the track...thats right im a NooB..but i say my reaction time was pretty good for a noob

A .450 is slow on a sportsman tree, no offense.
Sounds like you shifted at about the right rpm. To give you an idea a well driven stock 99-04 stock Gt can run 13.80's to low 14's. You need to go back and run some more, get as many passes in as you can. There is no substitute for practice.

I consider any light over a .100 a poor light when I race on a sportsmaqn tree.
A .450 is almost a half of a second or 5 car lenghts.

want to see if I can find my first timeslip ever at 16......it was .137 or something like that I guessed when the light was gonna go and I hit the nail on the head.......some people dont care about their reaction time if it was a test and tune.


You could have easily taken out that turbo trash if you wanted to...lol
