Default first time at a Track

sorry,I had no clue were to post this but since i have a prelude i figured,fellow luder's would appreciate it more.I have posted many times about my h22a swap.But this is my first time at a track,it was really cool i thought,Well i have little modification just basically I/H/E.no name short ram intake.dc headers.world sport exhaust.

I did alot of runs and found myself only getting better,my best R/T was .448 keep in mind this is my first time. My best 1/8 mile time was 10.1 and they ranged from 10.1 to 10.3.

My father dialed me in at 10.28 and i made it to to the quarter finals but i messed up on my launch and lost but i won 25 dollars which was the entry fee so it was basically a learning experance for me and i cant wait to go back.And to day was baically for me to get a baseline for my car,before i put my cams in and chipped ecu. is this time any good just asking for advice i didnt know if a 10.1 was any good,and what do you think i would be able to run in the quarter mile because i have no clue thanks for your time.

You should be able to get it in the 9.7 range. You should be able to hit 14.9-15.1's after you perfect your driving.

What are you 60fts?
