Been meaning to post this for a while visted a drag strip for the first time and even took the 'redtop valver' up the strip with all her seats and everything in(Wish I had took them out now), here are some pictures/videos of the day that I managed to take when I wasn't racing.

Need a better reaction time
15's good enough, work a bit more and it will be in the 14's.
Looks like it was a decent day Love going there its ace.
Dont be a gay and take the seats out just for the strip though, winds me up to fuck that.

I'm glad you kept the full interior in, it's a more realistic time. Just need more practice.
