what a long day
well i finally popped my drag cherry with a first ever run of 13.338 @ 101.35 mph
it just went down hill after that, because i took it easy on the first run, i decided to go hard on the second, flooded my motor in the burnout and fouled the plugs. the result was a sixteen something. we put new plugs in it in the carpark, but the motor was running like a dog (it wouldn't rev out properly), with another sixteen something on the third run. i decided that was enough, because i still had a 3 hour drive home in the poor thing.
next will be a tune (the motor has 3,800 k's on it and has never been tuned), then look out i will be back !!!
a few things that suprised me on the day were lack of organisation of the scruntineering and instructions for a newbie, and the amount of traction i had with street tyres !!! there is plenty of rubber on the start line
big ups to r33vit and benm for having a chat between runs (i thought it was nearly an hour between runs).
good to meet a few new guys :headspin:
and Bu5ter, our auto's will own everybody
