So, I finally went out to a drag strip tonight. $15 bucks and I got 4 runs in. 1/8th mile.

Run 1, 6:48 PM
R/T: .386
I1: 3.163
I2: 8.569
E.T: 12.860
MPH: 57.519

R/T: .448
I1: 3.879
I2: 9.773
E.T: 14.289
MPH: 54.921

R/T: .262
I1: 3.183
I2: 8.529
E.T: 12.735
MPH: 58.623


My 4th run, I was getting the hang of pre-stage, stage, tree. I ran the first 3 back to back without letting the engine cool down, and boy did it show. Sat half an hour before the 4th and it made a big difference.

Hot damn did I have fun!!
