You'll have a blast out there Brian. Traction can be a bit of a problem, so don't be to concerned about the times, just race the bloke next to you and have fun.

I'd go the 17's, maybe let them down to 25 and see how you go.

thanks marty,
yeah its all about haveing fun and learning,
cheers brian.

I think we have a thread somewhere on here with advice about drag racing?

You should have a dig around, you might pick up some handy hints.
