Ohio Valley 1/8 - with my bone stock C32

Today Ohio Valley (near louisville, ky) opened up, so decided to take the C32 down and see some baseline numbers before anything enhancement wise is ordered.

Well, I found out how ****ty at drag racing I am, my reaction time blows goats and keeping traction on blacktop sucks too...

Best time for the day

1.80 Reaction (I suck)
2.0883 60ft
5.826 330ft
8.3429 ET@ 594ft
8.906 1/8 @ 79.92mph

Few video's ...one with my best time of day (which is kinda jacked up cause wife shut camera off in mid run on accident, but got it back on for time).

The worst run was a 9.27 1/8 where I couldnt get dick for traction, still spinning in 2nd gear through the 60ft marker...I get easily walked by a 380RWHP supra

Best Run

Worst Run - walked by a supra to boot

Got the dyno done and now the 1/8 ... time to buy some upgrades

Your 60 ft time isn't bad, but your 1/8 MPH seems a little low. I thought stock C32s run 82 or so MPH? Were you at elevation?
