Default Just got back from the drag strip

Well it was about 85 degrees and we're at about 2,000 feet above sea level. Quickest reaction time was a 0.300 and the fastest 1/4 mile was 18.340 @ 75.24 mph.

Car is slow as hell but I had fun. Next open races are in 2 weeks. Should have atleast a few new things on the car by then. Looking forward to seeing an improvement.

I've raced my Mustang before so it wasn't like a new experience. Although I did expect to go a bit faster. I did about 6 or 7 runs so It was clear that the car can only run 18.3. At least that's the best it will run at that temp and altitude.
