d0 i just suck at driving or is there a problem with my car

[celicawot]

hello everyone. i dont think im a bad driver but you never know. so i was at the tracks a few days ago and it was hot as hell. so my for all my runs i hit 15.1 or 15.2. my mods are welded magnaflow exhaust, dc headers, weapon r intake. unorthodox pulleys, and the infamous pfc. before that day all i could hit was 15.5. so my last run it is still burnin hot. about 70 degrees. no breeze what so ever. i was determined to break the 14 barrier. so this is how it went. perfect launch, hit lift every gear. so as i pulled up to the booth to get my ticket it reads 15.000. what a bitch. i dont want to make an excuse but it was really hot. but shouldn't i have hit at least high 14's or do i suck as a driver. or is there a problem with my car. i also think my vvti wasnt tuned by the shop i should get my money back. and i got it dynoed again and i have 175 hp to the wheels. so does my hp and 1/4 time match with my mods

lol thats not a sig. he posted a picture of his car it seems. if your hitting lift every gear then you must be a good driver. have you got it tuned? i rana 15.2 with just a cai with a terrible launch..also my first time ever being to the track. ill break 14s next time i go.

??? because upshifting is the biggest part of 1/4 mile racing....No...Anyone can bang gears...Not everyone can cut good 60's

To the OP if you actually and truly want some help...Help us help you...Post the slip

How can you tell how good of a driver a person is by just looking at their time slip?

[lVlemphizStylez]

the 60 foot speaks miles about their driving abilities...

nope. that is his sig lol. he can check all his post and it show it shows up.

^^Nope he adds that image to all his post, it is not in his sig. If it is in his sig there should be a bar right above the pic like everyone else.

BTW to know if you suck, what elevation is this track? If it is at sea level then yeah that is bad time, but if it is high up then that might be a good number.
