I just have not seen how the event works yet, any videos?

Just like racing from a dig. But the counter starts at 60 and ends at 130.

Your car is equipped with a drift box that calculates all the information for you.

You can receive alot of good data from this event.

- Shifting time
- How car is running up top under load
- Get a good idea of how you would compete with other cars from a roll race.
- etc...


After the race Peter then puts the information on his computer and will post it up.

Ill show you an example

For example:

If you were to race Bob from a roll this is what the outcome would be.

Notice all the different graphs.

Here is the distances and

how far behind everyone would be compared to Bob if you all did a 60-130 roll

on together.

Bob 0

Peter 67ft behind

Sean 384 ft behind

Jean 518ft behind

Paul 558ft behind

Mark 1102 ft behind

Here are the best times

Bob 4.15

Peter 4.72

Sean 6.70

Jean 7.73

Paul 8.02

Mark 11.53

BOB (Supra - 4.15)


PETER (Supra - 4.72)


SEAN (996 GT2 - 6.69)


JEAN (997TT - 7.73)


Paul (STi - 8.02)


MARK (06 C6 - 11.53)


BOB vs. PETER vs. SEAN vs. JEAN


If any of you would like the 1mph increment detail please email me at pblach@att.net

Thanks again KPG, you rock!

Peter

If you can trap 130 you will hit 130.

Its not judged in a 1/4 space.

Just measures 60 - 130. then break.


You will have plenty of room to stop before then in your car.

Alot of spectators watch or is everyone racing? My formula is too slow to run but I do want to watch!

And:
WHERE WE ARE LOCATED
# Interstate 10 and Beckendorf Road (Exit 713).
# Houston to LONESTAR: 38 miles.
# College Station to LONESTAR: 77 miles.
# Victoria to LONESTAR: 99 miles.
# Austin to LONESTAR: 101 miles.
# San Antonio to LONESTAR: 120 miles.
# Corpus Christi to LONESTAR: 192 miles.

Where did this amount come from? I live smack in the middle of Houston inner loop and the map shows 56 miles, 1 hour and 4 mins!

The red T/A was running on a new setup. He was also running a faceplatted tranny and broke it on the last run.

Tiago what size of tire's were you running? Im running a 12.50 28's and very little rubbing at all with the bogarts. Sucks about your tranny. Big factor in why I went with a 4l80 setup. I spent ALOT of money on t56's

So that was your Vette that was rolling in while I was in line. I was like that looks like the one in Chris's sig, but didn't think you had made the trip down to Sealy.
