Exclamation My FIRST track experience...

Well I'm officially no longer a track virgin.

Tonight was the first time I have ever run my car at a track. I was nervous and excited. I had no clue what to do. But I stumbled through it. I also had no idea what times to expect or anything. But here's what I got.

16.13 without nitrous
And the horrible run
16.04 with nitrous

I was fairly happy with the first one, but I was shocked about the last one. But my reaction time sucks. 1.4! Ahh well I had fun and that's what it was about. Next time I'll know what to expect. I did beat an Integra GS without my nitrous though. He was a stick too. Guess he sucks worse than I do!

Anyhow, I'm still trying to figure out exactly what the reaction time is. Is that how long it takes you to go when the light turns green? What can I do to help with this?

Does anyone know of an accurate HP calc? The one's I've seen say I'm pushing 168HP without the nitrous..... Maybe I've got the wrong weight.... The curb weight is 2552lbs + 165lbs(me) + 32lbs(gas) = 2749lbs
