The Sedan Shootout Series mail-in
Next up tonight is the second race of the double header on the big track. Stay tuned! Would anyone be curious to see if there would be any changes in results, based on the higher start & longer run, by using the same 1st round bracket as I started with last night? Did I explain that correctly? Basically, in the first round you'd be racing the same person you raced yesterday but on a much higher start and about an 8' longer run. Or use a new bracket? Speak up! :-)

- Sure, I that would be interesting! — 72_Chevy_C10
- sure, but pull a plug wire on that #75...would ya?..smoking the field... — Traction-Event
Quick question for you experienced guys: my Drag Track timer only measures to the 100th of a second. Knowing that, if both cars finish time is the same, but the light at the finish & on the tree do in fact determine a winner am I correct in stating that the winner's time difference cannot be measured unless the timer measured to the 1000th of a second? If so, I'm going to attempt to record & show the finish times on the next race. Possibly even average them, if necessary. Because a handful of the races were indeed THAT CLOSE.
- i run 1 pass in each lane, if i have a fast lane i average the times... — model40fan
- the light shows the winner...light the light...kiss the trophy girl — Traction-Event
- yeah, the win light is the winner...if it's close, the times might read the same — 72_Chevy_C10
Ok. Second race is complete. Couple different results, but mostly stayed the same.

Well guys this one is....in the bag... Even if ole #75 did not race the next two rounds, he'll take home the hardware... Congrats on the domination of this series, this car is clearly a step above...make that the top podium step.
The battle is raging for the last step on the podium. At least 5 cars have a legit shot at that coveted spot. Fate can change depending on when you run into #75 in the bracket...this is gonna come down to the wire. Good luck racers!!

Broke out the video camera, haven't looked at it for a year... Too many buttons... I took some video samples... Even tried to use the instructions, the terms they use don't mean a thing to me... I can't delete any of it... Not to mention uploads to my computer... Then photobucket... Then here yikes !
I need a click by click, for the guy that knows nuthin', how to"...[please describe even the icons] ...
From on/ off to video, to preview, to keep or delete, to upload, to store at photobucket, and to post here... Maybe add the car owner's names under it.
