Default finally got some decent times at the track.

well me and my friends decided to hit up a payout race in montgomery alabama. since i didnt have slicks i couldnt run in FWD quick 8 since i had shitty street tires i had to run street class quick 8. got in about 16 runs to get used to the track and i started out with a 13.5 as my first run. way better than back in ga when i ran a 14.4 on only 5 psi now im at 9 psi. well the times got better and better. i finally got down to 13.2 and then the qualifying began. i ran 13.1 all 3 qualifying rounfs in my class but that was nothing comared to the 10.6 supra on street slicks (i think it was unfair) anyways turns out the other racers never showed up so instead they just pit me against a 10.6 sec supra the first round wow so nice of them. we get to the tree (mind you we are running pro lights, instead of getting 3 yellows before green we just get all 3 yellow lights at once and then green.) anyways i do a couple of tire warmers and this supra is just spinning his tires with smoke everywhere. we get to stage and the light goes green and what do you know he red lights and nab a 12.995 for my last and final run. i was quite happy with that. the payout in my class for 1st plac was 700 dollars. since some of the racers never showed up i only got 350 dollars (stupid i think) anyways just thought i would share my happiness with you guys. heres my best time below

r/t - .239
60 ft - 2.13
1/4 - 12.995
MPH - 114

not bad for street tires. with slicks and a better 60 foot time i think i could nab low 12's. running the same i was today which was 9 psi on 112 octane leaded fuel mixed with a little C16 with full interior

what is considered a red light with the pro light set-up? with the normal tree set-up, anyhting under.500 is a red light. and on your last run you had a .2xx
