Default First Run At Track!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, i got there late and managed 2 passed. The shop in town lent me a set of mcreary street e/t's. I was totally nervous on me first run, like standing st the high dive for the first time. LOL. I missed 2nd gear 3 times and spun the heck out of first and second(when it finally went) and managed a 13.326 @ 112 mph. That run stank!!!!!!!! Next run ,i was a little more into the groove. I noticed 1 st wouldnt hook, AT ALL! So when It hit green, I rolled out at 1000 rpm and gave between 1/4 and 1/2 throttle, No luck, wheels spinning and started the rear pushing towards wall so i feathered it, got back on, no luck, Hit 2nd early(1 st was useless) and it spun half way through, let off a little and slammed it into 3rd. 4th, crossed finish at about 5900 to 6100 rpm in 4th, Thats with 28' tires and 456's. One thing i know for sure, DONT GET MCreary's. I had no traction And no launch.my 60 ft and 330 ft time shows that. 1st run 60 ft. 2.214 330 ft at 5.959 1000ft 11.28 and 1/4 13.326

2 nd run much nicer, but not yet there. 60 ft. 2.087, 330ft 5.564, 1000@ 10.731 and 1/4 @12.756 also at 112.

1/8 mile, 1st run. 8.868 1/8 2nd run 8.349.

I dont think drag radials will do it either, I hardly call 100rpm launch, a launch. Anyone care to comment on a good 28 x10.5 x 15 tire. Exteremely limitied street use
