Cecil County Dragway, Rising Sun, MD. 06/04/06. I raced today and took a few photos of the competition.


This sure looks like a stock Saturn to me. I was surprised to see him running 13.78.


I don't know the difference between Camaro models, but this is a V8.


For you guys posting new Mustang kill stores in the street racing forum, how the hell do you do it.?


HEMI running 14.10 seconds.


13.89 second Camaro above.


For those interested in how I did today, lets just say that I was not on top of my game. That should suffice.

 

Looks like you had fun, nice pics *thumbs up*

 

Thanks for the pics. that hemi was a few tenth quicker than the ones out here.

 

So what did you run?

 

13.75 as per the picture. its okay alberto.. lol.

 

13.75 during practice.

During the first round of eliminations, 13.95, and got killed bad.

 

Bracket racing is really hard..It takes years of experience and a consistant car.

 

Between seasons I have lost .1 to 1.5 in reaction time. It takes a lot of practice. the road racing guys are really surprised since some think it is easy. usually they become addicted to it because it is so hard. I sometimes change my dial in 3 times during eliminations. Bad reaction time, dial in or bad launch and you are done in bracket racing.

 

This is my third season of bracket racing, and I posted my best day last week: I won 4 rounds. BTW the odds against winning 4 rounds are 16 to 1.

As you mentioned, it is a sport of least mistakes. The driver who makes the least mistakes wins.

 

hmm... That mustang must have been spraying.

 

Good way to put it. (least mistakes). I had a very good season last season.
It doesn't take long to go through 300 cars when eliminations start.

Winning 4 rounds is very good!

 

You obviously have no idea what those cars are capable of with very simple modification.

Max2000jp (member of this fourm and a friend of mine) clicked off consistant 13.0s to 13.1s with only an intake, x-pipe, mufflers and a tune in his stock tire'd 05 GT with 50+lbs of luggage in the trunk and a nearly full gas tank. Many other 05-06 GTs are well into the 12s with just basic modification.

 

Well that is impressive. No need to be a egotistical jerk about your explanation. Oh wait, you aren't capable of that...

 

If you knew what you were talking about when you posted I wouldn't have to. Oh wait, you aren't capable of that.

 

Lemme bust out my popcorn real quick

 

That is really impressive for the new GT's though. I didnt know they were that capable with bolt-ons either. I know when i saw the time posted on the window i thought nitrous too!

Bracket racing is really hard. I go to the track but cant say im consistent enough to even try it at an Import Wars event.

 

Well let me pull out my crystal fking ball and see what's under that mustang's hood. Fact is you have no idea or basis for your argument. For all you know it could be running on a hamster on a wheel.

You have yet to prove me wrong in anything I said... Not that I've saying it's the absolute truth, but your non-constructive heckling demeanor is growing old.

You've got a bad case of internet tough-guy syndrome. I really do hope you come down to Zdayz next year so we can fix that.

 

Well if you have no idea what it has under it's hood then why do you make posts like this??????

Exhibit A:
Do you want some cheese with that whine? I don't have to prove you wrong, (even though I could pull up a ton of threads from the mustang forum that would prove your "must be nitrous" statement wrong) I just think you are generally misinformed and don't know as much as you think you do about racing and cars in general.


So what are you going to do if I come to ZdayZ next year (which is doubtful anyway since I work weekends)? Try and beat me up like a high schooler?

There are plenty of people on this forum who have met me in person, and they all know that if I think someone is being an idiot, I'll tell them.

 

Yes, that was more of "hmm" statement in hopes of receiving a constructive response rather than some kind of direct commandment, which is apparently as you took it. Of course in your typical vengeful, anti-social comeback you took to your normal position of talking down to everyone you address. Next time, I'll make sure to add cliff notes as to appease you.

I could really care less what you think, only that you shut the hell up from time to time and quit being such a flaming asshole. But, really, I'm very flattered that you care so much about 'showing me you are superior' as to consider taking the time to prepare a report with a statistical analysis of modded mustangs. By all means do.

Next, you can go find me an analysis that states a tapering exhaust is more efficient than a straight pipe of equal diameter (I know this is what your general hatred for me is related to). I still don't believe what you state is true in that a tapered exhaust is the best design, and I still haven't seen any substantiated claims that it is.

Finally, I tend not to hold personal grudges like yourself; stalking from post to post to tear apart anything you don't agree with, and singling out those whom you've butted heads with in the past. I don't think anyone here will argue that is typical behavior from you.

... and if you did address me in person in the manner you do here, I wouldn't hesitate in kicking your scrawny *** like it was high school. I'm generally an easy going person but typically won't stand for that type of heckling in person.

I was informed by someone that you were considering going this year or the next, and I was actually looking forward to meeting you in person (and also that the APS super fanboy club was planning a visit next year). I was truly disappointed when you didn't show up. But hey, there's still hope for 07.

 

now what tough guy!!





just kidding, trying to add some fuel to the fire!!!
