First Time Out...
Well last night was my first time out at the strip. I almost left last night undefeated, but I messed up on my last race and lost by a fender.
Race #1: Me vs. 93 Accord Ex with cam, cam gear, intake, exhaust and a chip. My take-off was so-so, I am use to the firestones so I have to get use to the new ones. I ran a 16.667 and he ran like a 17. With my elevation being at 3950ft, with a calculations chart it came out to a 15.87.
Race #2: Me vs. stock new Camry. Right after my first race an older man came up to me asking me a bunch of questions in Spanish LOL. So I had my friend translate and he was asking to race, so I said "What the hell?". It was probablly a 4cyl since I beat him.
Race #3: Me vs. 3rd Gen Integra RS with the exact same mods as mine (The Megan Racing hi-flo cat is the exact same design for the Integra as it is for mine) but he was fully gutted. I came off of the line at his fender. Then I shifted into 2nd and we became dead even, and by the end of second I was about a half a car in front of him. We crossed the finish line like that.
Race #4: Me vs. 92-95 Civic Sedan with a built 96 LX bottom end, 99 Ex head, cat-back, intake, ACT Clutch with a flywheel, gutted, and God knows what else. I got a really bad launch and missed the 3rd orange light
And I thought that I could catch up to him but a 1/4 mile just wasn't enough.
All in all, It was a lot of fun. I want to gutt my car and get there earlier next time so I can pratice.

good job! I wish I can say my 1/4 mile runs went good today
I ran a hondata RSX-s and what ever problem I was having he had too. we were .3 & 2 mph slower then our normal. I ended up with a best of 14.503 and he came in at 14.538. oh well good runs for you anyways!

Suprisingly, there My friend with a gutted 02 Si with a 3'' custom cat-back and a SRI was running a 16.0.
Next week I want to make sure I get a couple of pratice runs in. I want to run a 4th gen Prelude Si with I/E who was running around the same times as me.
