1st time dragracing

Well last night was my first time for drag racing. I don't mean racing on the street, I mean at an official drag strip. I took my 1.8 DOHC 2nd Gen pro with the old factory rims in the front (with 25psi) and the ADR 16" in the back. Did a screech and got to the line, I was gonna race with my buddy that has a very moded '72 VW Beetle. When I got to the line the 1st line turned on then the 2nd and then the 1st went off (I went to far) I go a little back and got it and before I new it the light was green!! DAMN! I fell asleep. Tried to catch up by shifting around 6,500 rpm but couldn't I got my timeslip and here it is... All I can say is that for my first time it wasn't that bad. I'll accept motivation or positive criticism but please don't make fun. Keep in mind it was my FIRST time and 200 things were running thru my mind.

Whos pro is the white one? The one on your site can't be the same one.

Heck ya it was fun! I'll probably go again, not this thursday, but the other.

I don't know who's the owners of the white pro in my signature. Is that what your asking? I didn't understand your question very well.

Yup, thats what I was asking. I like it, just not the wing, not a big fan of them but the rest is nice. I saw yours at car domains and didn't think it was the same one.
