Frustration

I'm very frustrated. Went to the track tonight, and payed 25 bucks at Pittsburgh Raceway for ONE RUN! Alot of ppl mixed with a dumbass oiling down the entire track ruined the night. On top of that my one run was super crappy. Ran a 14.5 at 102 with a 2.46 60' time. I always run crappy when they make me drive through the water box, and tonight was one of those times. They had cones up that didn't allow you to drive around the water box. Does anyone have suggestions on what to do in this senario. Do I try to do a burnout with the stock tires to dry them off (Bill Hahn did a burnout with the new SS/TC and ran a 13.20...seems to work for him) or can I ask them to move the cone? I just dont know. All i know is when I dont go in the water I run 14.0 with 2.2 60's. All help is appreciated.

For your case though, roll down the window and tell them to move the fucking cones.

thats what i thought. ok ill do that next time. i dont understand why they even have the cones up there. Most of the cars that run up there are on street tires and dont burn out so there is no need to make us run through the water. Thanks guys.
