Nope, because I'd be shocked if you actually ran mid-12's on your first time at the track.
Launching can be tricky - my first time at the drag strip with my Forester, I ran 14.7 @ 98mph and 13.65 @ 100mph. The run is really made in the launch.
Sweet! Now get sticky tires and get into the 13's
What track did you run? I was going to take the MR2 to Speedworld last week but it threw a CEL, so I'm going to fix that first.
Still, you should come the next time there's a trip to New Hampshire Dragway in Epping... JLee pestered me into going to a street night and it was way more fun than I thought it would be.
Starts again next spring, right?
Ya dood. So does the auto-x season... :awe:

Speedworld, http://speedworlddragstrip.com/site/, find a night with 1 event, and you can get 7-9 runs in an hour. DO NOT GO TO FIREBIRD if you want to race. You'll wait 2 hours just to get to the first race and have a car broken down right in front of you.
Can't yet bust 100 in my 9000+lb gasser Econoline... She just weighs too much with the lowered floor and scary heavy wheelchair lift.
