This is in S2000 Talk. Why?

Ya know we do have a S2000 Racing and Competition forum. Or is that just for racing on tracks that have turns and drag racing goes in here?

My best run was a 14.9 @ 95 MPH - 60 ft - was 2.5 which is bad but I then ran a 14.9 again @ 94 MPH - 60 ft 0 being 2.3

non of this makes much sense to me, I have not a single upgrade to the car, where should I start if I want to break 14's.

I don't know if I've ever heard of a drag strip referred to as "the track", only as "the drag strip", "the strip", or "the drags" (i.e. "taking my car to the drags on street night").

And I know I've never heard of runs at the drag strip referred to as "track time"!

"Track time" definitely implies (to me anyway) lapping on a closed course and not a night at the drags.
