Where's the time slips so we can compare the splits?
I wasn't happy with the times so I just threw away the slips. Sorry.

Dude that's valuable data, don't ever throw those away. You need that for comparison later to see where you improved, where you didn't.

Yeah but that was my first time out. I need to learn the basics all over again like I used to back in the early 2000's. I had a 2000 GT with bolt ons and 100 shot and I was turning 1.6 60ft with nittos DR and running 11.7 at 117 mph but I was at the track every weekend. That's before I took over my company, had kids, and a wife. Don't have the free time anymore but I'm gonna go as much as I can right now.

So I don't see the point of keeping them right now when I need to learn how to drive this car all over again at the track.

I should have thought of this before. I can look up your slips on live timing. What was your car number?
