you could... if your racing bracket all you have to do is run the same time or as close to it every time... thats it... you could run 20 second passes all day and win... bracket is not about being the fastest, its about consistency.

not sure yet... being the weekend before I have to see what my work schedule will allow... I'll point out for any of you auto/cvt guys you will probably own this class since your racing for consistency in bracket.. the only thing changing with a auto car is your reaction time.. nail that down and your guaranteed a trophy.

I was the Runner Up in the bracket racing, so literally speaking, I won the lovely trophy that I am holding in the picture.

It was a great time and definitely something that I will do again and hope to get better at.

I didn't hit my best time on Sunday... My personal best was set on April 6, 2008 16.963 @ 81.97 mph and that was ALL stock!

I will go back when the weather is a bit cooler, just to make conditions as similar as possible to when I went in April.

congrats again diva

I didn't race since I had to bring my dog.. in diva's case she was by no means the fastest competitor, but ran fairly consistent to net her a second place finish.. Although if could of been pretty well been first place had the other car not pulled on her in the last 10 feet of the finish to win... Pretty close.
