Default 1st time at track

I went to track today and was just wondering what you guys thought of these times. I myself dont think they are to bad considering i am running f1 supercar tires.
r/t... .804
60... 1.868
1/8.. 7.684
mph..95.03
1/4....11.756
MPH...121.78
That was my best my 60ft times are 1.8's on street tires and 2nd and 3rd break lose I have to let off pedal for a split second when going into second gear then put it back to the floor. I was just wondering what kinda times you guys think i could get with some DR or et streets in comparison to those results. :hurray: :steering:

Based on your mods, I would expect that for every .1 you cut from your 60' time, you will see .2 tenths decrease in your 1/4 mi. time.

Your 60' time is very good for stock tires. If you could get it down to 1.5 you should be flirting with a 10 sec. time (probably low 11's). :cheers:

John....tell the wife you got a paper route and buy the CCw's :lol: :lol:

Great driving...impressive times. The DR's will help along with a line lock. The 4.10's probably pulled .3 off your times!
