I can remember my first 15 second run and my first 7 sec runs in the quarter. And those 1/8 mile runs deep into the 4's running nitro, wow what a ride.
Heck I still have a blast in a 12 second street car.
Its all about smashing that pedal and holding on!!!!!!!!!
It doesn't seem to last long, but what a ride!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All I know is I hope I learn form you guys on what not to do. :lol: I just cant wait to get on the track for the first time. I already know it is going to be a blast. Beast you are in my thoughts with your surgury. My wife will be going under the knife at the end of Sept. I just wish I could be home to be with her when she goes. Take it easy and be strong.

My first real passes were in a dragster that runs 8.30's. Scared the crap out of me the first time I let go of the tranny brake. On one pass I tried to stage with the back tires.ops: ops: I laughed harder than anyone and wouldn't have traded it for the world.
