heres my final timeslip... when I got eliminated (3rd round):

Reaction: 1.015
60ft: 2.279
330ft: 6.123
1/8th: 9.449
1/8th mph: 75.99
1000 ET: 12.222
1/4 ET: 14.547
1/4 MPH: 97.35
Reaction time has no effect on ET. Get some good sticky tires and a better launch. If you can get your 60' time down to 1.9 or so you should be in the 13s or damn close.

I was there with a Grand National and the Dodge Ram Hemi.
I ended up bring runner up in the truck in bracket 3 and made it 4 rounds into bracket 1 with the GN. Not a bad day.

Haha, cool. That was you eh?
I didnt really care for bracket racing so I just upped my Nitrous shot to 75 shot from 50 shot and lost.

Heres what I ran with 75 shot and a heavy *** subwoofer/amp in the trunk.

Index: 14.7
Reaction: 1.190
60ft: 2.089
330ft: 5.943
1/8 ET: 9.115
1/8mph: 77.01
1000' ET: 11.875
1/4 ET: 14.208
1/4MPH: 96.39

I wouldve probably have done alot better if I couldve got traction and didnt have the subs and amp in the back.

I wouldnt even need that... I had my tires aired up to 37psi so they would be more forgiving on my clutch. Thats just more 10ths I could easily lose and I must say, im surprised my 60's were as good as they were with 37psi street tires.
