I took my circuit car for its first go at drag racing in the weekend. It was a cold slippery track, with most people giving up with no grip.

My car is manual, with a bronze clutch that you can't slip, on road tyres, so I took off and wheel spun for ages, backed off 3 or 4 times, got traction and passed my opponent just before half track so hardly a model take off.

0.19 reaction, 2.7 60ft and 13.3 at 117mph. So all in all I wasn't overly impressed with myself, but didn't get a chance to improve as they shut the two day event down. So I don't really know how well I did or could do.
