My timeslip - got beat by a MOPAR ouch!!

Was at the Atlantic MOPAR Nationals at Englishtown - it was MOPAR vs. The World night tonight

It really killed me that this guy got a .009 reaction time - man I had to draw a ringer in the first round - and I was very close to my dial in - how depressing

I'm happy with the way my car ran I'm getting 26 - 27 miles per hour in the back 1/4 and i am very happy with that speed - - I just need to practice my fast shifts a little better and i should be down to 12.5 or so - - I'm very happy conisdering this was with my full interior - big car stereo set up and baby seat in the back !

Moving to Drag Racing with the other slips (and so people can actually find them if they attempt to look before asking). evolife, if you want to know about his system, please PM him or ask him to post a new thread so we can keep this one on topic.

EDIT: Or he could just respond before I click "post".

He also only gained 2mph from his 1/8th to 1/4. Notice that? Bracket racing much, Al?

That guy slammed on his breaks so hard I thought he would fly through the windshield - it sucks when you get your *** handed to you like that - he was so close to the edge it wasn't even funny

bracket racing?

I was wondering about the .009 R/T . . . that's a false start.

.500 is common.
.400 is used in few places . . . can't remember now.

.000 would be perfect .500 - - the .009 represents .500 they are merely showing you your diviation from the required minimum .500 - - thats what teh number means - you want it as low as you can without going negative

The guy who got .009 - that was just about as good as you can get - he was a great driver
