went to track last night.
well I went to sac race way last night for the first time, well, I smoked everyone one, it was cool, my first run was against a very lose 5.0, well he told me that my a$$ was gonna be handed to me in my family car ( my S55)
well guess what, I ran 12.864 1/4 I know it was slow, but I smoked him slipped and slid off the line but cought up, and took him all the way, like I said it was my first time, going to the track, but my best time was 12.70, well hopefully I'll get better at take off, and do better times

My best times were 12.70 @112.581mph,which was my last run. They scrwed up the slip on the frist run but I got the time on camera it was 12.864, then I got 12.89@ 112.653mph on my second. Sorry my scanner isn't working..

What do you think it could do with someone more experienced behind the wheel? Also any tips on lanching, should I launch with esp on/off? should I rev up before take off, then floor it? drive in D or M, or should I keep the car in 3rd, any pointers will help.

Roll on the throttle DON"T jam on it. Like jak said you can feel when the weight tranfers. With out esp its spins for me.
