Here's a video of my worst run of the day.

Well guys, made this video for my home forum, so that they could see the one, and only vid, taken of me running in pittsburgh yesterday, I'm really ashamed to show it, but it's all I have haha.

Best run of the day was a 14.42 @ 99.21 which is still terrible, but considering I have cooper tires that were at 32PSI, and it was 84 degrees outside, i'd say that's not too bad.

The big problem with this run was that I couldnt get traction for the LIFE of me, so I tried launching from idle, LOL, no bueno. Also, the kid in the left lane is a turbo'd 2.4L.. IDK if he's a member of the site.

Not just a bad driver. If you have an intense tune you car is running dangerously and you don't have the power you should. I trapped that stock and ran a 14.5 stock.

The trap is really the thing you look at most because that will change a lot more with power differences than et. Also you trap should be more consistent than et.

If you spraying meth too you should really get a real tune.
