1/8: 10.561 @ 65.40
Best R/T of the night was .590, and best mph was 66.04.
Had a lot of fun and saw some cool cars. Definitely going again next week
Also saw Turbo Neon there I think...black car with a kinda big front mount?

I got about 4-5 runs in myself, all of which I am disapointed in. I had never run at a track before, and the launch there is so much different than on the street. I launched it like I did on the street, and bogged it almost every time.
Because of those bogged launches, my 60ft times were shit.
My best was a 10.505@66.54mph with a terrible 2.7 60ft.
I think at the track I need to launch at some higher rpms and I'll be ok. Still alot of fun though, some cool Grand Nationals and a pimp Evo

It'll be fun, and you'll probably get more time actually driving than you will at the drag strip :P
