:cry: Yeah...you know it's not good when u go up for your first run and you get spanked by some riced out CRX only because u burnt rubber for the first 3 secs...Yeah burnt out in 1st until i shifted into 2nd still burning.....it wasn't meant to be on that run. Yeah 16.015 not good in any shape or form. But oh yes it gets much worse. Next time I pull up oh YAY! a Supra...Now I generally try not to worry about what's next to me I just worry on my time. I think I fell asleep or something because I was paying way too much attention to the light and not where my rpms were at. I thought they were at around 3ish but no....Green light!!! Stall out!!!:cry: Yeah....I wanted to crawl into a whole and just die. Nothing like a good ol' 25sec 1/4 mile!!!! I was not going to let that be the end of my day... Otherwise I would just have to hang up the turbo... So I pull up next time around with a WRX. Green Light....Smooth but quick. 1/4 time 13.9....Eh....alright But I guess this means I need to work on my shiznit..... I just felt like telling this story to make others feel better and to make sure that eventually DSM's represented.
 
i feel ur pain man....first time for me..i lined up next to a prelude...i wasnt lookin at my rpm's either and over rev and burned out almost all of 1st gear...i was so mad...i know i can take a prelude
 
Hmm...for some reason I know that your car has the potential to do much better ;) Keep practicing...
