What about what was the most embarrassing race you've had?

The following race story "created" the current incarnation of the Yellowjacket...

I just had my 98 GT for about 4 months when I took it to the track for the first time.
My first time slip was a 15.3.... (Boy, how far she's come...)

Anyway, my last run was against this HIGHLY modified Honda Civic with some HUGE turbo I could hear spooling up in the burnout box and up to the lights.....

This thing had some drag race suspension on it and slicks on the front....
NOTHING was left on the inside except two seats...
Even back then I had to hold back a giggle....

Of course he spanked me, but it was all from the hole shot.
That light frame shot away at the green with the help of the slicks...

The scary part is that halfway down the strip he didn't pull on me anymore....
His time: 13.3 at somwhere around 92 or 93.... (like I said, all in the launch...)

Then began the quest of never letting something like that happen again....
