I had a great time. Unfortunately I didn't run as fast as I was hoping for my first outing with the new car. Couldn't launch anything over 1500rpm or the tires just spun. also I'm sure the strong winds all day didn't help. First 2 runs I only managed 14.2 @106after a few more I got down to 13.6 @106 but It didn't seem like I could go any faster so I quit. I wonder how much 20+ mph headwinds hurt a stock hp level car. idk but I definitely need practice launching on the stock tires. In hindsight I probably should have tried to lower the tire pressure a bit but too late now.
