Default RE: humiliated at the track

next time you go to run..try to relax...dont try to pull an amazing short time and have perfect shifts...drive it like you would on the street, but harder....when people start trying to squeeze out perfect runs without any practice, thats when you start missing gears and such. also, dont worry about your reaction time...it makes no difference for TnT.
once youve got a good feel for the launch, you can try to improve on it...and th same goes for your shifts.

ORIGINAL: absoulute

thats the thing i hate about the track . there is so many people u can never race your friends and always get stuck racing a huge car. def practice will help your times alot. wasn't it fun though ..
there arent any friends once you pull into the beams...

First run I've ever had at the track was a 15.5@89, just gotta go out there and drive. Good for you for getting out there though, you could easily shave almost 4 seconds off that time with practice.

it's almost as bad as getting 15.8 for an h22 civic. once you see the last yellow thats when you go. if you go on the green, your too slow.
