Talking First time at the track

Went to Va motorsports park on Sat.

Best run of the day
13.957@98.20
60ft. 2.064
1/8 8.963 (I think Left time slip at home)

Cannot wait till Sat. to try again. Didn't get to make too many passes.(didn't know you needed a helmet when you are in the 13's)
So how did I fair?

Not too bad of a time w/out a chip. Wait until you get your chip, what a difference. Sometime next month we'll all have to get together down at Virginia Motorsport. I'm at Charlottesville and there are a few up in Manassa area. Anyway, welcome to the board and track!!

Anytime JagcLightning,

Making a trip down there this sat. Want to play around with launch rpms. Talk to a guy who had a nice 70's vette that was running 10's. Said he had seen one down there a couple of weeks ago running low 14's. he was surprised I broke into the 13's
