Had a lot of fun! show was pretty good for being free!! Ran my car for the first time ever, I got 6 runs in and my best time was a 16.1. Not bad for not being able to launch at all because my tires are almost bald! Last run was fun because the honda next to me blow the ____ out of his trans or engine!! lol

Congrats Cobalt! Best Xd and good track times.Thats way better than you were thinking. "I gotta 1.8 not a 2.4" lol my best run was a 16.1 but i lost my damn slip... Lol i only found my crappy 17 sec run were tried a lil launch . I did 2 burnouts. 1 in the box and 1 when the green light dropped.lmao still not bad for a first time with virtually no engine mods..

@dj08tc was that the blue civic they towed lmao

thanks man, it went better than expected. all i could think about at the stage was" dont stall, dont stall". i saw big clouds of smoke while i was waiting in line, i thought someones car was on fire, i asked someone walking from the pits what happened, he told me they set the trans fluid on the track on fire, thought that was nuts. im hoping to see alot of the same cars at the OC car show next year, as you all know scion sponsors that event as well, id like to see at least a dozen well done scions in the booth inside. i talked to brad, one of the orginizers of both the rage show and the OC show, he was thrilled to see so many clean scions yesterday, and is hoping most of them can come down and represent scion in june.

More than likely! I didnt see it happen since I was racing him. All I know is he did a big burnout at being and was revving it hard at the light and when it turned green I just heard a loud noise. Then when i looked back he was still sitting there in a big cloud of smoke. My brother said he dropped a huge chunk of the trans or engine on the ground! lol

I wanted to get in the 15s but my tires wouldnt let me. My first run I spun so hard and got horrible wheel hop from trying to launch, so I shifted way to early.

Here are a few pics.

Waiting for the pro mods to finish! Im standing behind my nephew. You can see Draxcaliber's behind me!



Getting ready to lie up, lost to this camero, he was the only camero I think that tried because he ran like a 13, and everyone else was only running 15s. I hate the new camero's with a passion! lol



Getting ready to go!



Video of me racing another tC. Not sure if he is on here but he was a nice guy, he missed 3rd so I won.

Very nice times kidd. I guess all the exhaust work paid off; I don't think I can justify close to 800$ for a half second faster times at the track, esp since that'll prob be the only time I ever track it. Id rather be out on the back roads flying around the twisties, but for a one time thing it was fun. You ever decide you wanna make your D look car show good, get your paint and body work fixed and then come see me.

Lustine tC also smoked the clutch ( it was stock ) on the 1st pass after pulling a 1.8 60ft. on street tires. They ordered a ACT clutch today, lol. Track prep wasn't as good as I had expected plus I have a hard time getting both tires spinning during my burnouts. I need an lsd, I would never buy one for just drag, but I can see how it can help for burnouts .

take it easy lol.
its not all about body work. who said a car has to look flawless to be car show good? thats why judges have more to look like than body and cleanness like performance. ice. and wheels. even with battle scars, im pretty sure ii will give you a run for your money lol. but if its a clean up competition then u'll deff take the win lol
im just not rushing since winter (snow) is coming. so no point and focus in school.
if ii can spend that for half a second faster. it must be cause ii have a decent job with healthy income to justify their work. btw ii got it for less cause ii been talking with them since day one.

hopefully we meet again next yr lol

Track prep in the morning did suck. Got a little better after the pro mods, but still not the best. I have no idea why they don't let people go around the burnout box at Capitol. It the biggest bunch of bs for everyone. Every car on street tire or radials was leaving standing water, At the line. Doesn't help that a couple cars broke either, but you can't help that. I'd like to see better track prep and the ability to go around the box next year.
