just got finished racing a mar at wentzville mo.. It seems this young man
with an older camaro with no mods has been winning pro and street
in the same day running both classes. One of the techs filled me in I raced him and he beat me by .012 I had a .593 reaction to his .577.Proof that skill
will will overcome mods .The young man was dialed at 13.99 all day
which is the limit for pro at the track.oh I ran a 13.30 on a 13.26 dial
and he ran14.04 .He must have run slightly faster in pro.

good thing about bracket racing. You don't have to have the fastest car, just a consistent car and cut a good light. Hell I won a race once with an-ex's 19 second Toyota Corolla

I won 4th round on sat with a .015 light and ran a 11.705 on a 11.70. Had a .008 light 5th round but lost in a double break out.

Now thats bracket racing. Awesome 454rat.

John, No flame but a .577. light is marginal. At my home track winning with a .577 light would be considered lucky. You are correct that a good light and a good dial is the KEY. Keep up the good work.

Thanks....

In my class S/P at the local track you better be .020 or better and run with in .02 of your dial. Or you will be sent packing. Even in the Pro class you need to be .050 or better.
