Default Went to the Gainsville Raceway Lastnight.

And had a damn good time. Note, it was my fist time on a drag strip, So i have some stuff that i need to work on, like getting a tune and investing in a pair of drag radials. My best run of the night was 14.056 at 102.82 miles per hour in a 1/4 mile. And the rest of the my runs ran in the 14.2 - 14.5 in a 1/4 mile.

trap speed says it's all about your launching and shifting now. Good times though. Got any slips to post?

Yep....trap seems consistent with your hp....you should be able to knock-off 0.3 to 0.5 seconds with some practice.

Your miles per hour will get you mid to low 13's just need to get some more seat time at the track to make the times fall. GO and have fun doing it
