The car is a bitch to launch, not exactly a track car IMO

....funny thing is, it sounded like he called your car a "Saturn ION Redline"...

What state is that in? And how cold was it? (would explain the crappy track conditions)

there was a redline in the other lane but some civic droped crap on the track ,so they just sent me down the right line bymyself since it was alredy 2hrs after the track was sposed to close . you can hear the ion i was sopsoed to run do a burn out at the end of the video. im running stock Pzeros and it was in fl and it was in the mid 40s. there was dew on track. if you listen to the video , you will hear me lift in first as i get off the line becasue i was wheelhopping , then in 2nd gear you will hear me lift again becasue i was spinning ...but i really dont care about my et becasue my mph is were it should be , i know i can run better if the conditons were right

If you get better tires you should be doing a 13.8 or lower if you nail every shift.

my driver mod is working fine , im not lanching the car at all for fear of it breaking again , and i have to baby 1st gear to keep it from hopping, becasue i dont want this to happen again http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTfcIUFMjsE, once i get tracion bars and i know the car wont hop again i'll go full throttle in first and knock my 60ft down to a 2.2- 2.1 . the main thing i was looking for in my runs were the trap speed. i know i should be running 13.8 or so with a 102 trap , but breaking stuff for 4thenths of a sec isnt really that important to me
