Here's the video of my first time at the drag strip from last night. Wow, what a learning experience! I never would have imagined I would be that nervous, or that going A to B would be that challenging. Watching the tape back is quite humbling and educational
My car is a 1996 Cobra with JLT RAI, BBK LT Headers, BBK O/R H-pipe, and Flowmaster Cat-back Exhaust. I know the car is capable of faster times but I have a lot of work to do on my driving skills.
I'm open to everyone's suggestions on what I can do to get better. Why was I spinning in 2nd gear so bad? Maybe I needed to spin the street tires a little more beforehand?
Any guesses on what you think the car can run with a better 60ft given the MPH I'm at (my 60 on the 4th run was 2.27)?
Thanks.
