First day at the track....

Well took the stock SS out last night.....had the car for 3 weeks.....haven't launched it much....and was at Moroso, so if anyone knows the track, they know how bad traction is there hahahaha. Anyways, here's my two passes...I was hoping for better, but tell me what you think.

1st run 2nd run

60' 2.365 60' 2.369
1/8 9.671 1/8 9.633
1/4 14.811 1/4 14.699
MPH 96.93 MPH 95.76

your 60ft. isn't too bad for a first timer. I think that if you worked on you shifts, you'd get faster. seems like your 1-2 shift is pretty fast seeing your 1/8th mile run a 9.6, I'd say that your 2-3 shift wasn't that great on your 14.8 run, or else you need to select a better shift point. good runs tho for first time out and stock ss! keep at it and you will see significant improvement!

my first time at the track the best i could pull was a 14.8. 2nd time i went, i pulled a 14.4. its weird how the track is so much different then the street but with more seat time youll get better.

thanks for the comments....I was hoping more for a lower 14....my 1/8th mile MPH was just under 76 mph.....I just gotta get the hang of launching it a little better.
