Not Ranked
I had a go at the drag strip last Sunday.
Had some issues first with the driver (me) then with the car.
Managed a 13.782 on my first run (with a .586 reaction time) and through the traps at 96.3mph, but this was my first run, and the people running the event told us taht there would be cones on the outside of the track, so when I went I was watching tacho and centreline more than the outside of track, I got to where I thought the end would be and looked, couldnt see any cones so I knocked it into neutral (thinking I had gone through the finish) then about 50 metres later I rolled over all these white lines going accross the track, this was the finish.
My fastest speed through the traps was 104.5mph.
But after my first run I had alot of problems with flooding, silly me had not fitted an Air Intake Sensor, I have done this now and took the car for a road test last night, no more fouling.
