First time at the track.....pics vids and ET's

Well last weekend I went to the local drag strip for the first time. Man did I have a blast I wasn't quite as fast as I hoped, but all in all I had a good time. Here are some pics from the day.

My buddy's green GSR w/nitrous

RX-7, that was running 12's until he blew up on his 2nd practice run

Turbo lude

My first practice run was actually my best of the day, 15.09. And the rest of the day I was doing consistant 15.3's. Current mods include: I/H/E/VAFC, I will have my suspension done before the next event and hopefully my pullies. Would it be stretching it if I was hoping to break into the 14's?

He was actually running around 14.3. I would have thought it would have been faster than that

what were other people running with similar setups as yours? you have to take a lot of things into factor when racing the clock, such as air, track, wind etc...

There was an SS w/ and intake that was running 16.8. A '00 SH that was around 15.9 ...weak and that's about it that I saw. You guys should have seen the tracker w/ a rotary engine in it

I haven't been anywhere else so I have nothing to compare it to.

I would be happy with a low low 15...that just gives you something to shoot for next time out.
