Hint - leave when the last yellow comes on. By the time you react and the suspension loads up, you'll be green and under the 1 sec R/T

Thanx, I also read the tech article on Drag racing.
It really helped, I wasnt planning on racing that night, because my sister had the trunk full of all kinds of junk.
So he asked me to race him cause he was afraid to race all the real cars
running.
You know all the regular stuff, Mustangs, F-bodys, Buicks, Mopars, etc.

Way to go for the first time out. It can be a lot of fun and there is a lot of improving your times, so if your not hooked yet, you will be.
