Well, I'm never going to E-town again. I just got back, and I really don't have much good things to say other than the track is setup very nicely. I almost got kicked out before I even got in the staging lanes to begin with. First they said my helmet had expired (didn't know it had an experiation date on it in the first place), then they told me since I had an aftermarket supercharger, I had to have a fire jacket (I ended up borowing one from a Turbo Civic owner), and then he told me my car might be to loud, and I might get kicked out before I started! He let me slide with my helmet since he said it just expired last year.

After all that non-sense this was my first time running my car with the supercharger and slicks, so I figured I would need practice. Sure enough, my first run as soon as I tried the burnout, the car slid sideways and I had to let off the gas. I tried it again with the same result. By this time the guy was already screaming at me to hurry up and get to the line. So, I proceeded with cold slicks to the line. I launced decent (for cold slicks), and as soon as I threw it in 2nd the car got sideways and I had to get out of it. I jumped right back in the throttle as soon as the car straightened, and I stayed in it all the way until 4th where the car started to get loose again and I had to get out of it, until it straightened out, and then I got back into it. Round 1 results, 1.9 60' time, 12.2 @122.

After waiting 4.5 hours of bike wreck, after car explosion, after coolant leak on the track I got to make one final run as it was 10:45 and the track closed in 15 minutes (I got there when they opened at 5pm!). I got a much better burnout, but could've done a better launch as I spun pretty bad. I didn't have to get out of the throttle at all, but I granny shifted into 5th (first time going down the track I had to use 5th gear!), and the end results from my night was another 1.9 60' time, and a 11.5 at 127.

Long story short, I have video of both runs I'll post up later (first run in the car, and second run outside the car). I will be going to Atco from now on, where they don't care as much, and it doesn't cost me an arm and a leg to get in, plus I don't have to put up with all the hassle.
