    sacramento raceway

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYViwMLoFec

    i ran 3 times...

    1st was 17.2 reaction=.167 @ 81.5 mph (lost to a integra)

    2nd was 16.8 reaction= .154 @ 81.0 (won against a old school bettle)

    3rd was 16.7 reaction= .329 @ 82.0 (lost to a civic hatch)

    in the vid is my 2nd and 3rd run...

    over all it was well worst 15 bucks...it was my first time i do want to keep modding the hatch but imma save up for a different car...

    mod= short ram, upgrade ground control, cut muffler

    my predictions was 20's

    that is not a good way to look at it. yes the car is slow, but this a great opportunity to LEARN how to drag race. It isn't all about dumping a clutch and shifting fast. learn the various stagging methods, try different tire pressures, different rpms for launching and shifting, clutch engagement, pre-loading the axles. it just takes practice and patience.

    Just because you get a faster car doesn't mean you will get a great time...especially if you do not know how to launch a car.
