Good job and glad ya had fun.

What killed your times are those horrible 60 foot times. I know those cars don't launch for anything without some gears and a stall converter, but were the wheels spinning at all? Did you drive around or through the water box? Did you do burnouts before running?

Every tenth you lower the short time, you usually gain 2 tenths at the end.

You'll get the hang of it. Not bad for your first time.

Actually, only one was REALLY bad, the others looked about right for a stock Mark.
 
my stock 98 did a 15.2 @98 for its best time at union grove this was with spair tire, speaker box and everything else, the key is the launch. the track photorgapher took a shot of me launching while i was racing a friend it looked bad a$$ with the susp topped out and i got a .016 reaction time i thought i red lighted but didnt and i didnt have $30 to drop on a pic but it was so cool

TEACH ME MR. PRESIDENT!! after all, you taught me how to lay doubles, what, was it on my 1st or 2nd try? We can play in WI babe, you are still going, yeah?!

SEND YOUR MIND, lolol!..... Dave, babe, it lives there! j/k Prez.

MOAH!

NYC, thanks for all your advice Hottie, you nailed it...., my launch, no matter how many times I practiced on the street and eleminator, there is nothing like looking at those lights. My launches were all over the chart! Is it weird that my speed stayed at 88mph?

Went around the water, no spinning, no burning...and thanks again. I will get to play some more tomorrow!! oh, yeah, the really bad one...the very first run of my life...a memorable one, it will always be something to laugh about, lolol!

I did too, I had a blast!!!! Flying down the straight away, coaxing & yellin at my engine! I hope I get that rush every time!

Gonna give it a go again tomorrow, I'll stop in and check the thread for any more golden tidbits ;)

Thanks again hun, SMOOCHES,
Debi

Man thats a nice run and AT 98 MPH, WOW. I hope my 97 Mark will be able to do that. and Mr wilson, I don't its fair if you remove the spare tire, and the Ice trick cuz thats not testing out what your car really has. well anyways, good job debi, hope you have fun on friday

I'm taking it he is not stock now as his profile said 15.2 at 92.5. 98 would be faster mph than mine stock, and no way a gen II is doing that.

Don't forget to turn off the traction control and OD!!

No doubt on the tc - but when they rebuilt the trannie, they jacked up my od and now I think it is always on.....they refuse to believe me when I told them it was working before they rebuilt the trannie and put the shift kit on - morons.

I'll let you know how it goes gonna go empty the car and leave!

Wish me launch timing and speed!

SMOOCHES!!!!

how is that not fair? thats like saying, well i dont have 4 people in the car either, so its not accurate to what the car realy has. Thats how you drag race. i tell ya what, when you get a bracket racer, put a trailer on it, pulling all your gas for the evening...then youll truely know what your capable of.:rolleyes:
 
:I with Serg, we know you will do better with TUX Debi ;) and he will run faster :)

what i am saying is that you race with what the car came with.(from the showroom, not decreasing its weight)

you only like a factory drag? so...every modified car, no matter how slight, makes the race pointless. sounds kinda stupid to me. but w/e. i guess your not running the car you came with, since you changed the fuel filter.

COME ON DEB! we will all stand at the tree and blow at you to give you a better 60'! :D I bet you got low 15's tonight.
