does anyone want to laugh their heads off? (video)

this is a video of my first time drag racing that my friend sent over to me. fast forward to about 45 seconds, i got mad sideways and corrected just in time. anyways, i ran a quick 26 seconds and i have the time slip to prove it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5pqOyrAir4 yes, those are my friends laughing histerically in the background.

I kinda seen where you caught sideways with some smoke and almost hit the wall, did you drive through the burn out box and not burn out?

finally someone sort of sees it. yea i went around the water and i think my left tire caught a little bit of water. my tires were at i think 40psi and i did the power over brake start at 3k. then i went into limp mode right away. the lower my tire pressure went, the better i did. the next run i went down to 30psi and still spun but not as dramatic and i ran a 16.5 then i went down to 25 and ran a 14.5 then i was disqualified. i'm gonna start at 18psi next time.

Yea I never use the water box, or burn out to heat up the tires. I just run my stock wheels with Pirelli PZero Nero 255/35/18 tires at 37psi in the rear on the drag strip and do pretty well.

The key is to slight rev around 2k and not floor it immediately to the kick down switch, you will get less wheel spin and traction loss in 1st then.

Why were you disqualified?
