Samson Goes to the Track - Part II
So I went to the track yesterday for my 2nd time EVER, and I was pleased with the results. I edited a short vid of my best run. I ran 4 times, but the 4th I drifted past the staging lights and they didn't tell me to back up and I didn't want to go put it in reverse so the dude started the tree before I could restage, hence no 4th time slip numbers for me. I missed 3rd 2 out my first 3 runs. Think it's in, but it's not. Short shifter time for me.
R/T .633 .624 .467
60' 2.309 2.310 2.391
330' 6.275 6.386 6.197
1/8 9.690 9.637 9.497
MPH 76.89 79.26 78.66
1000 12.476 12.348 12.207
1/4 14.811 14.630 14.496
MPH 97.76 99.90 99.65

Thanks buddy. Appericate that. Ummm, some sucky tires dude no lie. They are weird hook okay no that I'm learning to drive and all, but they don't wear at all which is good; however, I figure they should ya know gripping and all. Hankook HRII's, I believe SkinnyE rocks them too.

Re: Samson Goes to the Track - Part II
when i posted that i was hitting 14's on here, jeff made fun of me for being slow.
if you've got some sticky tires your launches suck.
i was hitting 2.2 consistently on some shitty all seasons.

I don't understand your point in the first sentence? Anyway, 2nd time at the track and i went from best of 2.597 60 foot the first time there and yesterday best of 2.309 this time. That's good improvement and first time on the FTL on the track. What tires do you suggest then? Should I rock the all seaons instead? I run 25psi in the 205/45/16s out of suggested 45-50.

Re: Samson Goes to the Track - Part II
I want to get it on streets. For me that means more practice and prayer I guess. I don't know. My Dad doesn't know. This is new to all of us minus Jay and his crew and you all. Takes time I figure. I NOW think 14.2s is gonna be my lowest as the car sits.
