Dam it sounds like you guys had another HMT time. something had to go wrong. I think its like this for everyone. something always messes up. just when you think you have everything perfect, something F's up and you dont have the tools or something to fix it.

Every time I have been to a HMT event someone has broke down the night before :'(. It was good to see all the imports at the drag strip, lots of cool cars.

Big thanks to Jeff, Beau, leia, and pat for the good times I had fun.

Yeah back in the day when I had my 88dx hatch it had a pretty decent stereo system in it. It was more sound quality than loud. I got that trophy at the high school car show so that really doesn't mean too much considering almost everybdy that entered got a trophy or something lol.

This weekend was defintely fun and I am now addicted to slicks. :D Being able to drop the clutch between 6-7k rpms and have it hook up is an awesome feeling. I was really happy with my times and I think with a little more practice and 12 psi I might be able to pull a 12.9 run. I am defintely going to setup my full throttle launch next time so I can pay attention to the tree and get my reaction times down.

Thanks Jeff, Beau, Steve, and Leia for coming down the night before because I would still be installing my LSD right now if you guys didn't help me lol. Awesome video as usually Dave. Oh and Beau next time you visit I will make a shortcut to internet explorer on my desktop for you. :P Beau had a little trouble figuring out how to get on the internet since I only have the recycle bin on my desktop haha.

Here is the time slip of my best run. As you can see I should have beat this guy (he had a skyline), but I was sleeping on the line. Good call on the 13.3 dial in time Jeff.

RT's are not factored into ET's just a FYI ;D

So you can sit at the line for 40 seconds if you want then take off and it will record after you take off.

I see, but in time trials reaction time matters, right?

your reaction time is never put in your ET.

I know reaction time has nothing to do with my ET, but I got eliminated because the other guy had a better reaction time right? I was closer to my dial in time than he was and my shitty reaction time cost me, that's what I was trying to say.
