Well last night was my first time at the drags with my 91 GSX, see my profile for mods. I had a heck of a time launching and didn't get it down. My first run was the best and had the best launch but I let up on the throttle halfway down the track cause I didn't know where the end was (it was night and my first time) The other 3 I bogged the engine big time. I tried launching at around 4500rpm every time but I think I was letting the clutch out way too fast and then not going full throttle when I release the clutch.
. It was soooo much fun though. I won everyone I raced with these times!!
Looking at these what time you think I can get with a perfect launch and shifts???
