At least you were pushing to limit of yourself and the car. Next time remember to breath and leave traction control OFF or at least sport mode on. Its not about win/lose, its about win/learn.

Here's my list of things to do for drag racing: 1/4 tank of gas, empty everything out of your car including things in your trunk, spare tire and jacks, get proper tire pressure for maximum traction. Turn off all the nannies so you can learn how to properly launch. Shallow staging and go on the second yellow. In the end it's all about having fun and learning how to drive your car. Since it's not about going fast in the straight line with our cars I wouldn't sweat too much.
