First time ever at track!! timeslip included
Just wanted to say I had so much fun going to the track for the first time. I don't think I did to bad for my first time. The car was awesome no hiccups nothing took the runs like a champ I did about 6 runs. I should have went to the track sooner! Here is my timeslip with street tires.

I learned that street tires DO NOT like a good burnout they just like to be wiped clean. I learned to hold the brakes and gas to about 2000 rpm. My tries worked the best at 28 PSI. I learned so much tonight I can't wait to go back. I was nervous everytime but had a blast.
-Thanks for the comments!

Your going to love the track, the guys are darlington were a ton of help everyone there took the time to explain and show me how everything works. I have a really good understanding about the lights on the tree and where an 1/8 stops and the 1/4 stops. It's one thing to be told what to do but it's another to see how everything works. A+ to Darlington race track.
If I thought my car could hold it I would have done run after run, it was just to much fun.

Good luck it's a blast! I didn't need a helmet until my last run they wouldn't let me continue w/o one. The best part is I can only improve from here!
