So i've been meaning to get to the dragstrip for quite some time. Yesterday was the last day of the season at my local track. I rushed over there after work and got there 30mins before close. I got off 3 runs, each one better than the previous. I really wish i had more time since i was just starting to learn the drag radials. There is definitely another tenth or two to be lost in the 60ft time which would've most likely resulted in a 12 second slip.
Here are some quick pics.
My second and third runs were against AWE's 2013 S5, really nice car.
They also had their 997TT there, drooool....
1st run, wasn't used to the DRs, bogged hard, 14.1@101
2nd run, smooth launch, missed second gear shift, 13.8@104
Got back in the staging lanes 3mins before they closed, and was the next to last car to run for the 2012 season. I managed to yell to Mike from AWE "get this one on video" as i drove by. So this run against their S5 was filmed, i'll probably see the video sometime next week.
3rd run, better launch, good shifts, 13.2@105
