Track for the 1st Time

Hey, I went to the track for the 1st time tonight and I had some decent runs for the 1st time. I have a '97 Max SE, Stick, everything stock besides filter.

1st Run

R/T .708
60' 2.610
1/8 10.422
1/4 15.948 @ 88.06 MPH

2nd Run

R/T .772
60' 2.641
1/8 10.395
1/4 15.94 @ 88.98 MPH

I did have my g/f in the car the whole time, that might of contributed to the slow times. But otherwise I don't really know whats up.

seems like you're getting too much wheelspin on your launch
working on that will make you about half a second faster
taking your gf out should be another 0.1 second
take your spare/jack out as well
