First time at the track in my V6, had a blast!!

Hey guys, last friday I took my baby to Edgewater in Cleves, OH. I didn't plan on racing it since I had 245 skinny Pirelli Scorpion winter tires all around, but my buddies wouldn't hear it and literallly forced me to race, paying the extra fee for racing over spectating Anyway, it was my first time ever at a drag strip, so I was a little nervous but at the end of the night I had a great time, and made some new friends. My best run was a 14.478, which was better than I expected because I had to leave traction control on since I had no traction off the line. I took off slow but reeled everybody around me in. I raced a 03 Mustang GT, which had a couple bolt ons and a smaller rear rim with radials on it, a 96 impala ss, a Cobalt SS and a V8 STS. Here are 3 videos, I don't know how to directly upload the video here so here are links. The first one is the Mustang GT, the other two are the Cadillac. I uploaded directly from my iphone, so the quality's kind of crappy enjoy anyway!!

Yup, 100 % stock down to the paper air filter. I only run 93 Octane Shell V-Power, many will say no difference, just my 2 cents

That's what everybody kept saying, that I have top end to it Thanks, I was proud of the times she put down even for having 245 skinny winter tires out back.
