Default I embarassed myself this weekend

Figured I'd share here too. I went to the "Fastest Drag Strip in the World" this weekend to attend a tuner event. There was drags, autocross, road course, and drifting. I finally got to test my car out on the drag strip. It was a ton of fun and i'm instantly hooked. Only thing is, I kinda suck at launching my car. I basically just slip the clutch till i hook up good, but this doesnt offer the best times. I think i'll activate 2 step on maestro and see how good i can get my launches. i feel bad for the car when i beat on it, but i'd only do it at the strip. and my clutch is only an s4 clutch, so that is another weak point. and btw, im the right lane At least i can get it up to 100mph in the quarter. with some decent practice and a good launch, I think i can get this car to the low 13's

Props for actually taking it to the track and actually posting a time slip! I've thought about taking mine to RIR or MIR but I'm still on too many stock parts to have a successful outing. Glad you had fun though, sounds like it turns into a really expensive hobby really quickly!
