My first 1/8 mile. (video)
Ok so my first time ever being on the track, ran three passes adjusted tire pressure/launch rpm's but couldnt control the dam wheelhop Lol.
I got a video of my 2nd run, was going to launch at 4500 but we sat there forever so i let off the rpm's to look back at the guy controlling the lights and as soon as i did it he started it...
hah so i ended up launching at around 3k and still wheel hopped like mad (you can hear me left off of it in the video then get back in it). But either way my 2nd run ever on a track with terrible terrrrrible launch i got 9.84 which looks to be about average..
Anyone have any advice to launch smooth at a good rpm like 5ish? I bogg sooo bad i know i could knock another 1/2 second off my time if I can keep the rpms up at launch.
