It was my first time at the track. I dont think i did too bad, but i definatly know theres some improvments to be made....
I got in 5 runs with my last being my best. I let my car cool for about 10 mins between runs .temp was about 80

best run-

R/T...1.081
60'...2.073
330...5.897
1/8...9.128
MPH...76.18
1/4...14.246
MPH...95.19



Im not gonna even mention my worst run. the other runs averaged around 14.3-14.4 @ 95.xx mph


Mods on my 02 rex are vishnu stage 0, samco IC hoses, stealth bov

Practice your launching and make sure you fully wind out the gears. Each of those things should get you at least 2 if not 3 more tenths of your time.

Not bad for a first time.
