Hey, nice times man. Get those 60' down to like low 2.2's or even 2.1's and you will be close to 13's.

pretty good for your first time, and every .1 sec taken off your 60' time = give or take .2 sec taken off your ET

Hey I was there too. My first time at that track. Good timeslip man!

I had some bad luck also, my tranny or clutch or something went out on me. Luckily it still had enough to get me home, or else I would've been pushing my car along side of you. Now that i think of it, I passed three cars with guys pushing them on my way out. That is one hell of a long way to the gate.

Curious were you the car that was near the EVO doing figure 8's?
