Post The Si met the track for the first time tonight....

Well I finally got a chance to take the Si to the track. This was only my second time ever running and the first time in my Si.

Ran a 16.0 @ 82.4 MPH on the first run.
Had alot of wheel hop/spin. I really didn't watch my RPMs like I should have. Just got panicked when the tree started dropping.

Ran a 16.2 @ 80.5 MPH on the second run.
Softened the suspension a bit to see if I could stop some wheel hop. It stopped alright. Launched a little too low in the RPMs. About 3250 or so. Why I launched that low I have no idea.

Anyhow, a 16 was what I was thinking I'd run. Next time I will break into the 15's. Just gotta figure out what I'm doin'. The 1/4 is a bit different than a street race.

If any of you have any tips for a rookie, I wouldn't mind hearing them......
