on my last trip to bandimere i had to style. i went through 6 rounds, and overall had a great night of racing. reaction times are as follows,.029 .200 (yawn) .230(yawn again) .261 (i was tired what can i say) .040 .037 .034 .022 and in the final round, .405 (not a typo)

on the last round i did everything the same, with the exception of putting the car in gear. when the first yellow hit i went to build a little boost and it reved pretty quick, so i look down to see a big N i drop it in 2nd and by the time i look up and the light was green. i ran my number, the other buy did also, but he had a .119 light so i guess it should have been possible for me to win, but i'm still happy with what i got.

reason for this being my last race at bandimere is because i got there around 5:30 (gates open at 4). i'm going to try to explain their policy that i don't understand completely, so bear with me. when first round of time trials are completed or close to being completed, anyone entering the track can only have one time trial. even though they will set there for 10 minutes without a single car running down the track, so i paid full price for my ticket but was only allowed one time trial. luckly for me there was this realy cute blonde punching the run tickets that i talked to some and she let me make my 2 time trials like everyone else. but that is still so wrong for them to take peoples money like that, when its not saving them any money. i just really hate that place.

but i got a trophy from them so that makes me feel slightly better.
 
Good job Dennis. Their racing policy does stink but you did get there 1 1/2 hours after they opened. ;)
 
The 10 minutes of no one running is probably track prep time before the bracket eliminations start. If not, then its a waste of time...but if they do prep, you'll be sorry when you go to a track that does not.
Congrats on the 2nd place, heck for only 2 time trials, I'd be happy to take home 2nd.
 
Great job!

Most look good, but you better work on some of those reaction times if you ever come bracket racing in the south. These boys will put you out quick..

I went out fifth round this past weekend. Worse light until then was a .039
Had a .052 fifth round and got tagged..
 
thats not track prep time, its everyoen already having their 2 passes in or not wanting to make the 2nd one too early. it really is a waste of time.

i know thats not great reaction times, but up here we race about 7 months of the year give or take. AND there is only one track that won't allow other tracks to be opened, yes it has been tryed several times that i know of. bandimere has their fingers in everything and one way or another have the ability to stop anyone. i really hate that place, but anyways...

by the way that night moved out club from 23nd to 8th place
