Default 98 GSR Capital Raceway

Yeah, took GSR to Capital Raceway last friday. Had a terrible night. I made 4 passes.
My times were 16.9,16.4,16.6,16.8. Humidity was 95 & 100 all 4 races.My 16.6 I beat a 5.0 Mustang. He ran a 18.2.After the 330 ft I had him.
I launched @ 3-4K Rpm. I spunt too much. I know I should've been in the mid 15's. I'll wait till it's a cooler night. Right now I'm just getting the feel of the car. Also its stock.

I'm pretty good. Just trying to get the feel of the car. Only had since April & those were my first runs. I leave @ 4K & shift @ 8.2. It was extremely humid when I ran. Whats a good rpm to leave at without alot of wheel spin. I use 3 gears down the 1/4.
