A.I.R. Drag results

OK So I drive an S3 - but I want a mini and I want to see more people from M2, Vortex etal rock up to adelaide events! dsakko did :thumbup:

Temp: 23.5, Rel Humid: 36, Abs. Baromo: 30.5

My results suck:
1st Run: 15.843 - ET ; 90.13MPH; R/T .641
2nd Run: 16.319 - ET; 88.43MPH; R/T .463

It then rained and no more runs . My reaction time definatly improved but I screwed up 1st to 2nd which accounts for the dud time . I need to tweak the spots where I change gears, but this sets a base line prior to any mods that might be done.

^^Wise man once said.

Good work Mallie - theres a 14 there easy one would imagine.

Worry about getting the shirting right before you worry about reaction times.

Yep, I was there, but didn't run. Don't want to break something expensive before the GP Rally.

The strip was slippery. The first of the dedicated drag cars to hit the track was getting wheelspin to at least half track.

Will post some photos soon.
