#1323, "Its my 1st time going to track, any ADVICE or POINTERS?"




          

Ok so all my turbo buddies asked me if I wanted to goto the track with them tonight. Its 1/8th a mile track unfortunately, but its still a track, with the tree light and everything. So you guys have and advice or pointers? What should I aim my time around 15-16? or is that too low? it is only 1/8th a mile after all. Well wish me luck...i dont work well under pressure, specially in front of crowds, I hope I dont go up against one of my turbo buddies. I want to race a civic or sumthing

10's - 12's in the 1/8th. Don't go through the water box and don't drop the clutch, come out on the clutch like you drive it on the street with little wheelspin. Good luck.
