First time at dragstrip

So, I decided that today, in the 94* heat, that I would run my car at the local test'n'tune (Pittsburgh Raceway Park)

I had a hard time getting a good launch, because my car apparently likes to get dropped about 1/2 way through the second light, but I got a .19 r/t with a 2.48 60' on my last run, which was my best at 16.134 @ 88.06. My first 3 runs were between 16.3 and 16.4. It was about 10* cooler on my last run and I iced my intake trying to get to 15's, but it just wasn't happening.

I decided after my first run though that 4.44's are in my near future, along with a little special project I've been planning since I can work on my car here at school

Edit: The runs were with a full tank of gas and 18" rims at 80-90*. I think if I had a near empty tank, and my stock rims/tires, and had a cooler night to run, I probably would have cracked the 15's.
