everyone that is running in the bracket class will be one group i dont think they are going to try to class the cars according to ET...take do dam long to figure out who goes where unless they do a simple ET break ....if i see victor from Race Legal this week ill ask him...be prepared for 11 sec 1/4 mile muscle cars in the class if some of them decide to show up ...meaning 5 and 6 sec 1/8mile times from them

i think I might have too do that. I have never raced an 8th mile before. My best 1/4 time was 13.8 what can expect my 8th mile time to be? Is it even worth it in a turbo car or is the race going to be over by the time my lag is over haha.

13.8 in the 1/4 is like a 9.4 maybe a 9.6 kinda depends on traction and weather...it get wicked cold down there at night being at sea level...carburated cars love it ...turbo cars make good power there too but the tracking can be a bit tricky if they dont prep the track right

event starts at 4 so im thinking they will do qualifying around 4-6 and then start eliniations about 630 ...figure they put 500+ in the drag event they nned to keep that group moving.....i think there is drifting going on at the event as well

its bracket racing you would have the advantage...you leave the line first and they have to try to catch you ...i love it ....any one coming out to just hang out or be in the show.... cough rennen cough cough

oh ok awesome. i just need to practice my new launch control. cuz i hate the launching pad at race legal.
