First ever trip to the track
Went to Kilkare dDragway inXenia ,Ohio tonight, unbelievably crowded. This is my 1st time at the track so I had no clue where to go or what to expect. My 1st run was aborted because I left when the other guy left (street racing instinct) and did not stage properly but felt good, was hooked up the whole way. Next run, after waiting 1.5 hrs, I spun what felt like the whole way down the track but got my time slip. Was expecting terrible times but was pleasantly suprised with a 13.01 at 109.81. 60 ft was horrible at 2.4492. The car is an A4 with melrose headers and hi-flow cats, vararam and 3.42 gears, stock converter. I know this car is capable of running deep in the 12s with decent driving technique. Was on non-runflats. What do you guys think?

Not too bad for the first time out. My first time I ran 13.1 @ 113 and by the end of the night I had 2 12.8s and this was with runflats and 2.1-2.2 60' times.
Get that 60' down and you'll see easy mid 12s and maybe better!
