    Neither of us red lighted. Both of us were napping on the light. Neither of us set a new track record. I crossed the line first. Adragon72 has a phone video. Hopefully he will upload it. I left my action camera at home...along with grabbing the wrong USB cable to datalog the pass.

    It's not worth uploading unless you want to see me spinning, getting squirrelly and driving through it. Classic consistent experienced driver auto car vs. manual inexperienced driver with new found power. I'm encouraged to get more seat time, work on my launch, ditch the sway bar and make some suspension changes. I need to learn to slip the clutch and not allow enough time to eat a ham sandwich between gears. I want to thank everyone there for the suggestions on making it better. You guys are awesome! And thanks again for the race!

    Do not slip your clutch. Use rpm and throttle

    Ditto on above, best launches I've had is with stock was just dropping the clutch at higher rpms on slicks. Street tires I would ease onto the throttle. Good luck with the new power!

    Well, Steve and I ran for spot tonight at edgewater, I won. He didn't have his nitrous on. He called me back out and this time his nitrous worked and he won. First pass he redlit and I still reeled him in but the second race was a clear victory on his part. I'm in need of traction and lighten the car up a bit. lots of fun. Had a great time. Donna and Steve's wife witnessed the first race and Chad and them watched the second race.

    Slicks?!? They were factory all season radial tires. Hahaha. Hence his need for traction. That car runs like crazy but tires were limiting it to a 2.0 60'. It came on very strong on the big end.

    what steve said. I need slicks or drag radials to get the 60ft down and the car will be a bunch faster.

    I just wanted to confirm that on friday nxcoupe beat me for my 7 spot. I called him back out and beat him. So nxcoupe should be in the 8 spot.
