Chris had a good day at PR in Pro Bracket, making it to the fourth round before his competition nearly strapped on a perfect .007 package to end his day to take a well deserved win.
Here are the list of Chris’ rounds:
1st: 10.542 on a 10.56 when his competition turned the tree red.
2nd: 10.538 on a 10.56, double breakout win.
3rd: 10.529 on a 10.52 on the brakes to take the stripe.
4th: 10.532 on a 10.50 to end his day. Data shows some tire spin on the launch in this round.
This weekend, Paul found himself back behind the wheel of Torri’s Pontiac as problems continue to plague Ron’s Mustang. But this was a tough weekend for Paul as the Tempest grew legs, set a new ET record for the Tempest in the process, and Paul broke out in early eliminations on both Saturday and Sunday. Paul will have more in the near future! – Roger
Hey Guys,
Here is the updated data for the Pontiac, still can’t believe how quick the ol’ girl is going as she is sure trucking along. Dad, I was telling Chris tonight that she was pulling until about 5400 or so and went through at about 5600 at the lights this weekend which is about 150+ higher than it did before.
I had fun this weekend even though I didn’t do so well like I expected but Chris you did an awesome job on Saturday and feel pretty good about our chances at any race going forward as both the car & you are pretty dialed in.
Saturday:
#1 Qual: 12.337 @ 107.14 .086rt
#2 Qual: 12.471 @ 106.77 .041rt ***Spun due to lack of good burnout***
#1 Rd: 12.384 on 12.40 dial @ 99.23 .119rt ***Took way too much stripe as approx. 12.32 pass all out***
Sunday:
#1 Qual: 12.240 @ 107.92 .058rt
#1 Rd: 12.228 on 12.23 dial @ 103.20 .086rt ***Took way too much stripe as approx. 12.204 pass all out***
Cash Bash:
#1 Rd: 12.232 on 12.23 dial @ 108.61 .046rt
#2 Rd: 12.254 on 12.22 dial @ 107.73 -.002rt
As you know both of my losses on Saturday & Sunday were my mistake in judging the stripe as I need to learn to tighten it up much more at the other end, no need to take a 3/4 car lengths no matter what. I do feel much better after getting the round win in the cash bash even though I went red by the slightest margin in the 2nd rd as I just need to go rounds and have some fun doing it. Thanks again for all of your help you guys and looking forward to the next race along with the upcoming Nostalgia race.
Paul
