yes chris that info was right


i went 10.91 off the trailer, 1.60 sixty foot and 125 mph. i was happy with that as it was into a very stiff head wind, 90 kph apparently, so the commentators were saying.


i then went 11.0 11.05 11.2 the MPH was down a fraction and the 60 foot times were in the 1.6 and 1.8's

i was basically trying to be consistant at this meet and keep up my form from the last 2 meeting finishing in the finals.


unfortunatley, my brain got in the way. in eliminations i deep staged, which according to the rule book results in being red lit (disqualified) so i put it in reverse to get both beams up, as i was getting it back into forward drive the tree counted down and i left in second gear resulting in a 1.2 reaction time and a 2.1 sixty foot. thus getting beat. to say i am ans was pissed off at myself would be an understatement. i had the most consistant car in my class. but thats racing and i will make sure i dont do it again.

my tuner did a similar thing, didnt cocentrate, looking at a easy win and his thumb slipped off the trans brake button on the 2nd amber.

we (rx engineering racing) were happy overall with our weekend, all cars drove onto the trailer, we had 2 guys win there classes. all our cars got good publicitym CRITTA got interviewed for the OPTION videos.

BF GOODRICH displayed interest in some form of deal for me.

congrats to chris and GIHOOK for their new PB's. just wait for GIHOOK to get a functioning gearbox, 11's are there.

it was good too meet chris and MR DOHC, 1j180 from the forums and numerous other people.


cant wait for november to rock around and do it all again on home soil.

i hope people that got to see appreciated my third gear lock up clutch burnouts past the sixty foot marker, as the BF's didnt like it so much, still they have lasted a year so thats not to bad
