Hey crew, I've been thinking about signing up for drag combat at the motorplex on 10th of April.

The class I'm gonna be in is the 'dial your own' 13.00-14.99.
What this means is, I give a 'dial in' time of 14.8 and my opponent gives 14.0. I get a 0.8 second head start!
If I go faster then 14.8 I lose!
So basicly, I have a chance! Woot!

Since im just scraping in, I'm probably gonna always have a headstart, and those silly turbos are gonna have to catch me! Ptssssssht Ptsssssht to you too! Rolling Eyes

My downfall is my second gear, when I too often miss, but otherwise I'm fairly consistant. Last time I ranged from 14.83 best to 14.97 worst when I hit 2nd. the 2 times I missed I got 15.2 and 15.6, and this being elimination comp, means I'm out!

The prize money is pretty dismal, and will just cover the entry fee, so this is just for a bit of fun!

here is an addy for it if anyone is interested:

Lets see if I can show em what the most underrated import can do.

FTO POWER!
