First time at the Drag Strip

It was my first time at the drag strip. Didn't know what to expect my C63 would do at the track but i had a lot of fun and the fella's out there was gladly to share they're wisdom about what to do at the drag strip. Again, it was my first time and i didn't know what to prepare for, i forgot to bring the stock wheels, didn't have my camera, and didn't have my hd video camera. I was unprepared as it was kind of last minute so i forgot to bring the DSLR and the HD Camera. Video was shot using the cell phone, sorry for the bad quality and excuse the people in the background.
If anyone that has more experience with Dragging, please chime in and share your wisdom. I would like to learn more. Enjoy.

Thanks,
-Tot

Cool stuff
Don't sweat it - the video quality is not bad.

Looked like a nice event. I wish we had more events for premium class race cars... Here in Poland I can race tuned Golfs or Civics which, even if I win, does not satisfy me
