first horrible time at the track yesterday

so i had 3 runs (got there kinda late)....although i learned a lot and figured out what im supposed to do at the beginning haha...so first run i stalled...yes stalled..very very nervous...ended up getting = 60' - 6.384, 330 - 10.520, 1/8 - 13.840 at 73.90 mph, 1000' -16.696, 1/4 - 19.097 at 93.39 mph.......2nd run was my best run however i didn't push 1st gear hard enough at the beginning times were = r/t - .539, 60' - 2.307, 330 - 6.461, 1/8 - 9.816 at 73.31, 1000' - 12.686, 1/4 - 15.083 at 94.45 mph...now my last run i was really really pissed off because i missed 2nd gear and am pretty sure it was gonna b my best run cause i had a great launch im like 100% sure i would been high 14's (which i know is pretty crap but it was my first time at track) stats were = r/t - .659, 60' - 2.627, 330 - 7.136, 1/8 - 10.558 at 73.50 mph, 1000' - 13.465, 1/4 - 15.868 at 94.54 mph ..it was my highest mph of the day and i still missed 2nd...track conditions were fairly dry and like 25 degrees CELCIUS dunno what that is fairenheight. so what you guys think ? crap driving for first time and need more practice or just stop driving lol?
