You also left a bag we picked up for ya. What'd you end up running?

[ashanson]

Yea I feel stupid for leaving my bag, I realized it about an hour away. Thanks for picking that up for me. I'll be through Cedar Rapids tomorrow on my way home so hopefully I can stop by and pick it up.

I have a LOT to learn about drag racing, my first time out I ran a 13.8 @ 113 spinning at the line and then bogging in second. Next run was a 13.2 @ 116, bogging at the line and missing third gear. I ran a few more times and got a best of 12.2 @ 120 I believe, still never got the launch right, my best 60' was 2.15. I will have to do some research on what the deal is with shifting into third and the reverse lights coming on and not going into gear. Maybe I just suck at shifting that bad, but there is no way the car is actually going into reverse, it's locked out if you're moving. I'm more of an autocrosser, this drag thing is new to me, but I look forward to improving my times, the car can easily do mid 11's on the street tires.
