That was a pointless matchup.

What kind of times did you run?

It was my first time at the drag strip I did 3 runs, 2 were pathetic 14.2's due to alot of factors of my inexperience and etc, this one was the best at 13.3. I was just very nervous, was experimenting launch's and etc. Im happy with a 13.3 that run for my first time there!

No worries there....most of us would do the same.

I have yet to go to a dragstrip myself (to compete) but I distinctly remember nearly soiling my trousers at the starting line at my first autocross event. It's a lot of pressure and there are a lot of variables.

Sounds like you were already settling in...you'll be faster next time!

Looks like you had fun!

FWIW, if anyone has ever driven one of those Integra Type-Rs... they are super fun! Slow, but fun.

They throw snow on the track just before their runs,
it gets swept off/melts before the cars come out.
