When it cools off again I will make it back to the track. It was cold and partly misty last time. Danny is right, it's just too hot to be beating on these cars right now. Nothing to gain from it but wear and tear on the car and shitty ET's.
Was that on drag radials? Either way that's impressive man. Honestly driving skills will come to you the more you drive it. My 8.33 was street tires with my mods in my signature

Yeah, that was on DR's, but rowing gears with the stock shifter. I thought I was cool thinking I'd be able to row gears with the stock shifter even though the guys were telling me it sucked. I never drove my car hard enough to know how bad it sucked. I had never even turned off the traction control before that, in fact, I had to ask Nick how to do it. lmao.

Oh well, hopefully I will do better next time out. It's still a slow turd though. I need boost!!
