My First Time

Well, i busted my cherry last night.....at Drag Racing..

I think i did pretty good, considering it was my first time.

Here's my time slips. I ran the left lane all night. Car #8064



And a few vids.

My retarded friend missed my first run, and my second Burnout.
I still need to learn throttle control. I spun out of the hole everytime.

2nd run





The thing that pissed me off, is that i wanted to keep going. 3 runs just isn't enough time to learn what ya gotta do.



I'll be back this friday. And oh, i spanked my friend in his stang.His best run was in the low 15's. Sucka! He's already talkin smack about getting Juice.

3rd run and Burnout.





There was another lightning there last night. A red 99 that pulled a 12.9. That truck was nice.

Very nice and congrats on the whole 'Popped the cherry thing'

I can see by your wanting of more passes that you are addicted now and soon you will be at one of the tuners going, "Give me more, Give me more".

ITS A BEAUTIFUL THING !!!!

Congrats again on the win.

VINNIE

BTW- Nice reaction time on the third run. Also what rear tires and pressure were you running?

Vin,
Thanks for the props brother.
Yeah man, i just want to learn the truck some more... get my driving ability to meet my trucks performance. If i can't drve the truck the way it is now, i think it'd be stupid for me to throw more HP ($$$) at it.

That's how it was for me and motorcycles. Worked my way up the food chain.

BTW: i was running 14 psi on Nitto NT 555R's.

Thanks Hilander

That Stang? Sure as hell was..

My friend is pissed. He wants to beat me in the worst way. He was talking so much crap. He was going to get vanity plates made up too. "LTNGEATER" or some nonsense like that. I guess it's a good thing we raced before he did that...


The track announcer was funny as hell too...and i quote. "Hey, look at this...Stock Mustangs do 14's, you might as well throw that time slip away..."
