Well . . . I still don't have my chassis certed, or my license yet. But, tomorrow is a points race . . so I gotta go.

I'll be dialing the car at 10.05 and keeping it slow. :'(

Yeah . . I should still be able to go some rounds . . remember, in bracket racing it's not "how fast" it's "how accurate". It's funny to think that I'm sandbagging by putting 10.05 on the windshield . . . lol

Well . . just like my AZ Wildcats, I went down first round today. Caught a good light . . . short shifted a bit too much . . . and couldn't catch the guy at the stripe.

I had a .066 advantage on the light and just fucking gave it away like a moron.

Turns out I would have lost anyway because they were enforcing courtesy staging and I didn't know it.

All in all a wonderful day. :puke:

COURTESY STAGING?

Yep. That means you can only light the top bulb and you have to wait for the other guy to light his top bulb before you can light the bottom one. I usually do it as a matter of course, but I had NO IDEA that the failure to do so was a DQ at this particular track.

I'm just glad that I lost the round, anyway . . otherwise I'd be PISSED!!!
