well, went back to the drag strip tonight
man i swear, we must be jynxed or something, last time we went the tree had been hit by lightning, so we raced with no times, this time we go, track is wet, but tree works, got to run 1 time and they shut it down b/c of rain , anyways, crappy time slip but here are the specs
car 96 accord 01 civic
reaction 0.5880.849
60 ft 3.6914.294
mph 62.73 0.00 don't know why it didn't show his speed?
time 12.94713.743
1/8th mile track, very very very slick conditions due to rain, we both just spun and spun as evidence of our 60ft times

60ft time is everything. so your slip really doesnt mean anything. you should be in the mid to high 2s. and idk what a good 1/8 mile track time is because all i do is 1/4

well the conversion chart i found would put me at around a 19 sec. 1/4 , no way i am that slow, i mean i had almost a 4 sec 60 ft. time, that right there shows i was spinning, i'll upload the video,

definatly not 19-20 sec 1/4 no way, 17-17.2 or 17.3 yeah, but not 19 or 20, i am uploading video to youtube right now, i will link when it's done, i spun all of first, had to let off to get traction back and then hit it, although the 01 civic ex spun worse, anyways, we'll be going back next sunday hopefuly good weather and tree working for some real times, just want to guage what i got right now so i have a base time, so when i add more i can see the difference
