I went to the track tonight not planning to run, and ended up doing it anyway. I had EVERYTHING in the car down to the floor mats and the radar detector, and I haven't been down a track in a few years.

60' 2.494
1/8 ET 9.695
1/8 MPH 78.74
1/4ET 14.539
1/4MPH 102.44

My best trap was 104.4
My best 60' was 2.494

The main thing I need is practice. I think there are at least two tenths in there. I was not happy at all with the fact that My N/A Sentra was faster every time through the 1/8th, and I never even ran it at the track at it's top potential. Still, I wanted mid-low 14's on my first outing, and that's what I got. I need to shed some weight (Spare, jack, and such) and work on my driving skills and see if I can improve.

Good job 1st time out! You definently have the mph for a better time if you can work on the 60ft. This question for everyone that posted times.....Do you guys stage deep or shallow? Just in case someone doesn't know what that is, if you stage deep you turn off the top green on the tree. This might give you a better time but slower mph. If you stage shallow you actually have a running start at the green b/c there is a small area from where you are staged until you cross the beams, and that will give you a higher mph. That's the best way to expalin it unless someone else has a better way. Not a lot of difference between all of us just curious. It's a nice combo of people with Hahn and ADM. It is nice to see the actual time slip to if it's available.

Mine won't scan because it's printed too light. I just tried to show it to my grandad, and I had to read it to him. It's that bad.

How bad were you guys spinning in second? Did you let off at all in the first part of second to try to get more traction? I spun ALOT.

I did not use the nls between 1-2. Sometimes it's hard to get it to go into second b/c it revs so fast. Actually first gear spins a lot in the higher rpms, so I ended up short shifting it into 2nd, and the boost isn't up so it bogs until boost hits. I haven't had a lot of runs to practice b/c the snow came, but i'm looking forward to trying different things when the weather breaks.

I have saved THOUSANDS of time slips from my race car and most have faded to where they cant be read. Some were difficult to read when I got them.

Third option: "combine the fastest and the most power for the HHR list" -- I guess the poll took that literally. :)
