1st time at the track (1320)......
well yeah, for my first time at the track i think 1320 was pretty good practice, it gave me a feel for the track instead of the street.....its hella different for sure......my car was feelin alittle weak tonight and the weather was shitty for runnin cars......
1st race: RSX vs. friends SVT Focus ....it was my FIRST TIME ever running my car and i launched WAAAAAAY too low and bogged, while he launched perfect .....he got a full car on me and somwhat held it off til the end, (i wish i would have ran him a second time)......
2nd race: RSX vs. Celica GT-S ....the kid was real cool, i think his name was Brett......he called me out so i lined up and tried a higher launch this time because my first one bogged.....so guess what? i ended up launching too HIGH
.....so while im spinning wasting precious seconds he puts a car on me off the line and keeps it on til the end...... 
3rd race: RSX vs. Focus SE ........i won! lol......finally i hooked up somewhat decent and had a good run......but then my problem was the TREE!!!!!.......i HATE THE 1320 TREE!!!!!! ......it just turns green w/o any warning (not really like a stoplight race, but ohh well)........and well my reaction TIME SUCKED......but hey atleast i got some TRACK EXPERIENCE.......

Wow Brett sure was brave to call you out after seeing you flop your first run.

i didnt know the svt focus was out yet. how did it run?
at least you didnt do anything embarassing on your first run like pass the yellow line where you start. or have a 1.5 reaction time...

..hehe he did pass the light..had to back up the first time..but it was his first time..only reason he lost to the svt was he was most likely in reverse when the light went green. ...j/ky tom it was fun..next time tnt instead.

reaction time has no effect on your 1/4 mile time.Clock does not start with the green light it starts when you leave the staging box.Now spinning the hell out of your tires that would effect your 60ft time which effects 1/4.
