Victory is mine.

So after going to 3 final rounds in the last two months at State Capital in Baton Rouge, finally took the win. Twice in the Taurus, once in the L.

Got there late. Loaded the stage 4+ from Livernois, thanks Rick. Made my 1 time trial.

rt .024
1/8th 8.530 @ 81.71
1/4 13.286 @ 103.29

Dialed in a 13.23 as there was a lot of cool down time for elims.

1st round.
me vs ..................... fox body
dial in 13.23 .......... 14.96
rt .279????? ........ .143
60ft 1.957 .......... 2.439
1/8 8.512 @ 81.9 ................ 9.992 @ 74.6
1/4 13.260 @ 103.46 ............. 15.176 @ 95.42
Taurus power bailed my RT out on that pass.

2nd round
me vs .................. LS1 Camaro
dial in 13.26 ............ 13.05
rt .135 .................... .205
60ft 1.941................. 2.148
1/8 8.475 @ 82.08 ..... 8.632 @ 85.73
1/4 13.277 @ 99.10 ..... 13.230 @ 106.68
looked back around the 1/8th and he was nowhere so I just made sure to stay ahead of him. If I'd had stayed in it that pass should've been a 13.18 based on the 1/8th mile performance.

3rd round

me vs .............. 2010 6 cylinder Mustang
dial 13.21 ............... 13.89
rt .006 .................... .209
60ft 1.966 ............... 2.377
1/8 8.530@ 81.41 ........ 9.593 @ 79.26
1/4 13.734 @ 91.62 .... 14.482 @ 101.82
Due to him spinning and my "redlight" I was ahead of him by the 60ft marker. Just paced him so not to break out.

4th round Bye run into the finals..
dial in 13.27
60ft 1.962
1/8 8.529 @ 81.98
1/4 13.267 @ 103.74

Final Round
me vs ...........................3valve GT
dial in 13.26 ................. 13.20
rt .161 ..................... .092
60ft 1.987 ........................ 2.005
1/8th 8.549 @ 81.95 ............ 8.545 @ 83.11
C'mon Taurus power
1/4 13.292 @ 103.6 ......... 13.313 @ 102.62
Victory by .0125:woo-hoo:

Nice going. These cars are "Made" for bracket racing.

 

[jayro]

Nice runs. Consistant...13.2xx on all but the one run.

Agreed, looking at the 1/8th mile times all the passes except the 8.4x would've been 13.2xx. Now if only I'd stayed in the 8.4 pass and gotten that 13.1xx, but then no trophy.

Always so tempting.
