Default Track Day

Hey amigos, new to your board. I drive a red 91 MR2-T which I'll be learning to launch on the track w/o spinning out. Anyway, anxious to meet more of you at the track this Saturday. That's me in the pic for those that don't know me

It's a T61/T3(w/stage 5 wheel). I already know that I'm deep in the 12'vs on account of the cars I've gone up against and their time slips from the track. I just need to learn how to launch on the track. Very different from the street.

I think you will break into the 12's, but on accout for your crappy 2nd gear, I say you will be running in the 12.7 - 13.1 range.

Sweet jesus!! That's sweet!! Good luck then, get those deep 12's. With a hp calculator you are looking at 12.2-12.3
