Is it open to all of Jotech's customer. I hope it is more of a Z, G, evo, sti group.

Originally it was open to all Z and G's but some of us have changed brands and are still member on this forum so i would say its open to all.

+1 on the bracket racing... if it's just the first one down the track then i don't stand much a chance... lets see who can actually guess their time and then match it...

i'll see if i can bring a friend... running a B18C5 civic... it's a work in progress but it's not slow...

I say use the tree and see who first. Some of the people that will come might not have been to the track before so they would have no idea how fast they are or consistant.

Anthony, just make sure you nail the RT and the 60'. Most guys will run only a couple of tenths faster than you. If you get a perfect reaction time, that's enough to give you enough distance from them in the beginning that they'll be playing catch up the whole time. By the time you cross the line, they'll be right next to you.

@ what Anthony said..
Just run, man. What does it matter if you win or not? Racing is free, but spectating won't be. Let's just get out there and have fun. Depending on how many people show up to race, we may have more prizes for 2nd and 3rd places.

Also, with bracket racing, either the track will have to accomodate their timing system just for us (which they won't do), or somebody will have to manually see note who won. Bracket racing becomes complicated as you need to do a couple of preliminary passes to get your dial-in and then somebody has to keep a record of if they are qualified for the next round or not.

So, we'll just stick to heads-up racing. We'll do a couple of passes just to get warmed up. Then I'll set up a tournament tree, with people being randomly assigned to each other. Whoever comes out on top wins, and we'll figure out 2nd and 3rd places also. Don't just quit racing if you are out, but continue to race for fun.

As far as pictures go, you don't HAVE to take pictures. I'm sure we'll have spectators or friends of racers who'll take care of that. Just make sure they're actually good pictures/videos where you can actually see the cars and get good viewable (read: enjoyable) quality vids.


Racers:
1. Chris (3 5 0) -------- 03 350Z ------ Bolt ons
2. Tony (Tony2) ------- 06 350Z ------ Bolt ons
3. Anthony (legion) ---- 03 350Z ------ Stock
4. Travis (walkert) ----- 05 350Z ------ Bolt ons
5. Brian (golfinz) ------- 05 350Z ------ Bolt ons
6. Jason (nexx) -------- 04 350Z ------ FI
7. Young -------------- 06 Tibby ------ N/A
8. Mackie (zspectrum) - 07 STi --------- Bolt ons
