[XLR8]

Lighten up. It is your first time,you will get better with practice.

 

[Ulysses]

Don't be too ******* yourself. These guys have lots of seat time.

 

[Anthony - 98 GTS]

Dan,

Did anyone get any decent times in??

When I get my car finished I will be a ****** at the track as well. I'm sure I will **** at first - but eventually be able to run a good time.

Kinda make you appreciate how fast Albert 9.63 really is!!

i saw this after i made my post in the VOI7 section..

12.11 is not bad for your first time out.. it takes practice to get the launch right.. was that your only pass?

ps.. RAINED OUT...figures...

Evan Smith runs a 10.87 on Pilots.

Doug Levin at VOI runs a 11.08 on Pilots.

Dan Black runs a 12.11 at VOI on SLICKS! With a wonderful 2.46 60ft time. Yes it went 131mph. But in 12.11 seconds!

Did I mention I S**K!

I think I should be banned from all Viper related activities as to not embarrass myself and those around me.

Yes its the first time Ive ever run the car on slicks. Actually its the first time Ive taken it down the strip with me driving at all. I think I better leave this sport to everyone else EXCEPT me. I am very skilled at making a fairly fast car real slow. But give me a break. My mother drives better than that.

I s**k, s**k, s**k.

VOI elimations ended up rained out. Im not sure how they are gong to evaluate the results.

Dan when i first got my stage 2 twin turbo buick my first pass was 10.1 at 141mph i was pissed. The car was all over the place and i over boosted and got on and off the gas it was embrassing to say the least. However there is no subsitute for seat time just block out all the people around you and not try to cut a good light. Wait until you are ready and try to leave the same all the time whether it's with boost or rpm be consistent then go for reaction time. Make sure you are comfortable, don't put pressure on yourself remember this is not your job it's your hobby so enjoy , relax and learn.

 

[Chuck 98 RT/10]

Humble Dan. Keep having fun. I aint any better but I keep going anyways.

 

[99 R/T 10]

Hey Dan,
Right there with ya bud. I could have done MUCH better, if I could find 2nd.... or fourth for that matter. I should have pulled low 12's, my best was 12.5@115. I SVCK TOO.

Mike

Take it easy on yourself big fella, I drove your car and I can see how it would be tough to handle all those horses. Or, you ****! lol. At least you are there trying.

Dan:
I have NEVER done a 1/4 mile either. Hundreds (maybe a thousand) of miles of road racing but never a 1/4. Thank you for representing ME too. I am sure I'd SVCK TOO!!! Would probably svck even worse since your 12.11 (fast car) would make my 13+ (stock car) look svckier. Chuck's got it right. Have fun! Forget the numbers (for a while) and stop letting everyone else drive your car!
