I did not include reaction time. I mentioned on the first page that reaction time must be from a competition round not practice or test and tune.

Drag racing isn't that popular to begin with, especially not around where I live and not among Z owners. Throw in the higher admission cost for the bracket race (vs. test and tune days), you get even less attendance.

I cant wait to go again. Its been a while for me now.
Definitely after you win a round, its a huge rush. Then you know you got better cars to go up against. Its an awesome feeling.

bracket racing is only 25 here, i think thats even cheaper than the test and tune. i think a lot of people only have bracket racing for bucks type of thing, where as where i go its mostly competition, and a cheasy trophy. in reality, id rather do that though than spend a bunch of money and hope to win

youve gotta use that to your advantage... ill tell you from experience that its no fun sitting with your finger on the button for five or six seconds waiting. you can draw alot of red lights that way! and dial a little soft, that way you can hold a few and dump em at the end. its pretty hard to close on somebody with a 50mph difference and have them dump as you pull up next to em. give it a try

I had my first bracket racing experience yesterday. I'm sure I could've done better if I was N/A, but I wanted to see what my nitrous could do also.
I only won 2 rounds out of 5 rounds - so 24 racers in my bracket.
I raced against the R35 GTR my first round, BTW.
