Message Well, right from the start is was about 100 degrees by 11am. After not making the cut for the street tire heads up class, I went to the 11.99 - 13.99 bracket races. My morning time trials were as follows:

R/T .548
60' 2.033
333' 5.418
1/8 8.234
MPH 86.38
1000 10.620
1/4 12.649
MPH 111.69

R/T .542
60' 2.202
333' 5.661
1/8 8.478
MPH 86.47
1000 10.848
1/4 12.856
MPH 112.89

Then I went into first round elims. I was running this Eclipse that was sandbagging. I know that he was running 12.8's the day before and he dialed in at 13.00. So I got all flustered and bogged the start, not to mention sleeping at the tree. Here's the result of that run. I dialed in at 12.85, but ran a:

R/T .752
60' 2.256
333' 5.769
1/8 8.598
MPH 87.83
1000 11.015
1/4 13.055
MPH 110.79

Lost by .1746. But as Glenn said the Escort Z ran like a champ. I have still shots of it that I'll post tomorrow.
