First time to the track with my 09 ss/tc

Best time of the night was

60- 2.35
330- 6.23
660- 9.33
660mph-79.17
990-11.98
1/4-14.19
MPH 102.1

I cant figure out how to launch these cars, I was spinning a lot, and this is my daily driver, I have a 98 SS camaro that runs 11.7's that's a lot easier to launch.

I take it this was with a stock SS/TC? And if so, what was your 1/8 mile time and trap, if you have it? Either way, a 14.1 is very good for your 1st time. That is actually about the average time of most stock SS/TC's as of right now, but once Spring and Summer come along there will be tons more in the 13's with ease. They are very tough cars to launch, especially when you get the car tuned. You just gotta play with it and see where you feel more comfortable launching.

Yeah I have a red ss but it doesnt have the ann. stripes just the like the old SS strips. I was thinking about bringing it down to capitol because 75-80 its that good. I would rather bring the camaro down but its not ready yet> Did you use to have a camaro?

Nice run man. What was you launch technique specifically? That would give us a better idea of how to help you. Also, did you lower your front tire pressure at all?

My first trip to the track was a 14.1 at 101mph. Just keep working at it and the car will keep on getting quicker.
