Default First time to the Drag Strip.

Today was me first trip to a strip. Ever. I'm addicted.

I went down to Moroso tonight, got to make 2 passes raced my friend in his Camaro with about 8 grand under the hood, my car is BONE stock in the motor department.

Here are my times:
First pass was a 15.373@89.10 MPH w/.754 reaction
Second pass was a 15.389@89.30 MPH w/ .180 reaction -- I watched some cars and learned how to jump the lights after the first pass

Both passes were wins!
Although, had his Nitrous been working, he would have smoked my *** -- and that's WITH his 2-speed. His 1st and 3rd were the only 2 gears he had tonight, his others were blown.
the first race i won by .3201 and the second i won by .7231

Dam, why havent i done this before? i love the track, gonna be spending alot of tuesdays and fridays over there

how can you say its rice that ran that fast? a ricer can be a domestic car. if you mean an IMPORT ran that fast great if you consider all imports rice you got issues. there are a few ppl on here. i dont think they post much but they are ricers

nah nah nothing like that quik. This thing was a bowl of rice on wheels!

You should have seen the body kit hell i saw a riced out mustang over there too! I call ANY car with a flamboyant *** body kit and paint job ricers. My cousin calls them 'molested' cars.

to me a respectable car is a respectable car, but that's not to say it isnt riced out. THAT was a Nice rice racer.

my usage of the term ricer isn't what most people think of as a rice burner, I.E. those DelSol's from the factory


didn't mean to offend any1 heheh.. maybe i should have termed it a 'rice rocket?' anyway you would have had to see the thing to truly feel what i meant.

heheh oh yeah someone raced their nissan van last night too lol.. it ran 16's

going crud on imports would have been the shirt i saw some guy wearing.. "Your import sounds like my *** after a full day of eating mexican food."
