same here... I think the traffic would be pretty bad. Does anyone know how the traffic would be to SAC on a Fri? I know its a rule of thumb to not go any earlier than like 7pm if you don't leave by 1pm the latest on a friday.

Sean: looking at the timeslip it appears you REALLY hooked up. Thanks for watching her while I was racing.....am I your new hero now??
I got another couple of runs I think. Beat myself on R/T- hit my dial dead on. It was so close I thought I won, but I lost by 1/100's.
I had a fun night and It was nice seeing you break the sound barrier.
congrat's Sean...that's fast!

Bring your fuses, CIA's, smoke pipes, bias-ply radials, duodenum spacers, whatever...I will crush you all.
PS Sean if you ran a 13.4 would you be willing to race my friend's E46 M3? The look on his face as a stock 350z pulls on him would be be priceless!

I took out 2 350Z's (not members of the board here) head to head last week with a passenger in the car, so I don't think your antique will be a whole lot of trouble. BTW I had the fuse IN. Next Weds it will be OUT.I think Sean's Z will surprise a bunch of M3's.

why is it that the last two timeslips show the faster time is the loser? they both also had faster trap speeds, so it doesn't make sense to me.
And I have no idea what that means.

the dial in time is what you write on your windows as an anticipated time you will run in the 1/4 in bracket racing. It is a way to have cars of all speeds compete on a level playing field. It become a contest of how fast your reaction time is and how consistant you are, not on how fast your car is.
As an example to explain my statement you quoted. I dialed in a 13.900 ET. or elapsed time for the 1/4. I turned a 13.903, so I was 3/1000 off my dial in, but my reaction time was .310 and I needed a .300 R/T or better to have won that race. I am usually in the .0XX R/T area, with a best ever of .002 off a perfect reaction time/light. Perfect is .000.
Does that make sense?

I went to Manteca after work on Friday. I guess i won't be making it to Sac unless I take a day off. I left work @ 3:45 and didn't get to the Altamont pass til 5:30 ish. It was terrible.
