Default Track Night Pcs and Vid added

Track Tonight, Hoping for some good weather and some quick times. Low 13s was what I am looking for. I hit 13.8 the last time i went untuned and without too much seat time. Hope to see some MF'ers there. Englishtown Raceway Park NJ

So yea, just got back. Best time i ran was 13.6 at 102 with a 1.9 60' Would have had a faster run but my headunit popped out on the 1-2 shift and it screwed up the 2-3 shift, over reved and delay the shift a sec or two. have a couple of vids that i will have up later with a couple of pics.

Track was good i just cant seem to get the tires heated enough. I dump the clutch at 3000 rpm and spin just a for like 10-15 feet then hook HARD. i spin on my 1-2 shift and chirp 2-3 then just hook on the 3-4

Some dude showed up in a new skyline, no dealer tags and a white piece of cardboard over where the plate goes so i have a feeling he works at a dealer and borrowed it

I would definitely spin it higher than that because it will put you higher into your power band for the next gear.
