First time at the track with the whipple

Zero traction, I was spinning the entire length of the track and trying to feather the gas to keep going.

I need better tires. But this will do for street tires. Also, I have no idea what I'm doing. I even forgot to lower my tire pressure.

They should make everyone buy drag radials when they purchase a supercharger.
