A few 1/8th passes

I took my car out to the local dragstrip last Friday and figured I'd share. It's only an 1/8th track, which sucks, but it was fun to play around. We got there right before a huge thunderstorm rolled in. There was hardly anyone there so I just kept hotlapping it before the rain hit.

Car: '04 Sedan, 6 speed, 5/16th spacer, ztube, otherwise 100% stock power

8:02pm
60' 2.25
9.46 @ 76.98

8:05pm
60' 2.42
9.64 @ 76.36

At this point I realized I forgot to turn traction control off

8:08pm
60' 2.48
9.57 @ 77.91

8:10pm
60' 2.35
9.49 @ 78.62

At this point I finally accept that I suck at launching the car whether TC is on or off.

I decide to park it for the night. A few min later my sister-in-law realizes they'll let you take a passenger and wants to ride, so I make one more pass.

8:20pm
60' 2.42
9.55 @ 78.11

Overall I was impressed with the car. It looks like the G should be good for a pretty solid mid 14 pass. Pretty respectable for a big 10 year old sedan with a crappy driver.
