I want to see some Balts other than dvs at the track damnit! lol We will be there tonight, hopefully some Balts will be making some passes. I still have not seen an SS/TC run at our track yet.

I beat him each time we raced though! and I missed gears and had crappy launches... How sad. I totally still need to learn to launch and I'm having issues with 2nd gear. You can ask Nal!

Here's a pick of my fastest 1/4 mile run!

Pretty good trap, should be able to get into the low 14's maybe even high 13's. Just got to get that 60' time way down. For every tenth of a second you take off your 60' it generally takes about two tenths off of your 1/4 mile time. Your 60' on that run was almost a 2.7, which, no offense, is really bad. lol Get that down to even a 2.4 and you would be running low 14's. Just practice the launch and try to limit the wheel spin.

Yeah, I've only been driving stick since I got the TC last september and I've only taken it to the track twice now. The whole launching with a stick is slightly confusing when you're not used to it. I gotta learn not to dump the clutch. Once I get my launches down then I'll be able to work on my overall time. Reaction time, wheel spin, etc. You know the drill lol.
