Also, they weren't spraying traction compound, so by the end of the night, everyone was spinning out all over.

EDIT: Also, 55% humidity and about 80 degrees F sucks.
Great job getting out there! Beware, the track is very addicting!!! LOL!


BTW, your ET (elapsed time - 14.2) does not include your RT (Reaction time). So if you are shooting for your best ET on a test and tune don't worry about your reaction time... concentrate on your launch.

As you learn more you can learn about staging shallow and deep and how it affects things like your RT and ET...

Hoping the weather clears here today so I can out out and play!! LOL
