Default First Time Track Results

Ok first time at the track. Will be going back next saturday and desperatly want to hit 14's. What can I do. These times are the two best I got. After these the track got real slick and I could not go with out spinning. Hell even my driver side tire spun rubber on my fenders, and I do not have a LSD. Anyway any suggestions would be appreciated.

Also this is on stock pirelli tires. Spare in trunk

What mods do you have on your car. And if you got a spare in the back take it out.

Manual or automatic? I used to shift my automatic but they told me to just throw it in D and let the computer shift. Also i got a couple tips about powerbraking to like 1,500-2,000rpms just enough to the point you wont start to burn the tires. Someone also told me to only have like 1/2 tank of gas or lower since you pry wont take enough trips down to use alot of gas and you dont need the extra 50+ pounds of gas.

Also congrats on the first time! Its exciting isnt it

Hey Chad! I know you really wanted that 14! But considering the conditions I think you did a great job! You are right.... the track definitley got slippery! LOL!

What was the PSI on your tires? Also, your car is making solid power, that MPH is good for a 14.8ish run for sure.
