Well the day started off horrible. Lost the $40 dollars I got from the bank for the track. Had to bum money off a friend. The tire pressure gauge I brought could not be found anywhere in my car.

Ran a 15.83 at 87mph with a 2.47 60'. Pretty much disappointed all around with my first experience at the strip. I ran my tires at around 28psi (not sure, couldn't find the guage ) I'll be going to the strip every wed till I am in the low 15's...

I felt a little better when another 5th gen ran a 15.9 Which is horrible hehe

Oh I forgot to mention the conditions were pretty rough. 104 degrees and 25% humidity

 

dam that sux....15's

what are your mods? stock i hope?

Don't feel too bad, I see quite a few 5th gens hitting 16's at lacr.

 

first time i ran, i got a 15.7. keep practicing, i've hit 14.9 on my third trip out there. oh, and on the same day i hit 14.9 my friend drove my car and was in the sixteens

 

Yeah practice makes perfect. Plus it was super hot!!! Your 60' shows that you need to work on your launch (then again, so do I). Keep tryin'!

 

The first time I went to the track I looked like a fool, the second I looked like an idiot, the third time I kept redlighting... It took me a while but after much practice I was able to hit 1.8 60ft (slicks) and 13.6 wit reaction times of .5's and .7's
So don't feel bad just keep trying.

 

Yea, i will be out there a lot till i get those low 60' times...
