NHRA Sport Compact Nationals Atco, NJ (New Personal Best)

[SWCRedline]

Just got back from ET Bracket Time Trials, Eliminations are tomorrow. Got 12 practice runs in, pretty consistent.. most in the high 13.6 to low 13.7. couple bad launches got me 2 13.8's but on the other end, I set a new personal best.

13.576 @104.33 2.098 60ft

This is with Stage 2, Intake, and BFG Drag Radials

Not too sure how I'm gonna dial in... still 1 practice session tommorrow morning.
Reactions time were fairly consistent but not great. 5 runs under .050, 4 runs between .050 and .150. and 3 Red lights.... i'm a bit concerned that I'm gonna get excited jump the light during eliminations. As far as I can tell, my car is the only domestic running in the bracket class unless I missed some cars... and I was turning heads all day... lots of respect for the RL. I'll let you guys know how the rest of the weekend goes.

Great numbers........mid 13's is great. How are the 60''s lookin at those times? Those R/Ts aren't bad too. Good job and just keep it cool while you're up there, I'm sure you'll do great.

Well Sunday had some good and some bad. Made it to the second round of eliminations and knocked myself out with a -.008 R/T. However in the last round of time trials I posted a .001 R/T to set the event record in all classes including the pro's. That should stand unless someone cuts a triple zero this afternoon. I dialed high at 13.970.... I ran 13.970 and 13.972 in morning time trials.... was sandbagging it a bit but consistency rules over speed in brackets. Overall I'm satisfied with the weekend considering it was my first competitive and first bracket event, Personal best E/T and R/T in the same event.

Just to update, looking at live results and someone in one of the sportsman classes just cut a .000 light... so my record stands no more!
