1/8th times... dont know what to think....

I ran the 1/8th and my best was 2.3-60', 10.51@65mph.

this was my first time and I am not the best at launches yet, 3 times i squeeled the hell out of my tires.

i dont know what the performance times of a stock FC would be in the 1/8th, only in the quarter. andybody got any idea how this is for a first time dragger?

Thats not bad for the fact that you have next to nothing done to your car. You need a good exhaust if oyu want to run any faster.

COuld be worse though, last tiem I went, there was this all riced out civic, tons of stickers, body kit, rims, HUGE wing, etc. He was running 11.4's and higher..

yeah, I wonder how fast CHAD could push that car through the 1/8th.... burnout should be a breeze wiht only 1 rear wheel
