[1218shelby]

how much is this? i hope the Novi is installed by then..

[Martini]

Bracket racing:

you get 3 qualifying runs.
They take your best time take off .1 seconds and thats your dial in time.
in eliminations if you go faster than your dial in time you're automaticly disqualified.
they let the slower of the two cars go first so that both cars in theory should hit the finish line at the same time.

Example:

you're racing against me.
your dial in is at 10.000
my dial in is at 15.000
i get a 5 second head start.

[1218shelby]

so this is a 3 day event? from wat times to wat times? how much does it cost? how many cars go?

[Martini]

Friday is Test and Tune
Saturday is Qualifying
Sunday is Eliminations

you dont have to go friday if you dont want to.
i dont know if the price is on the PSCA website so price i can't give you yet
last time there were like 40 cars in the mustang maddness class. but no limit.

[1218shelby]

what are the times? did you sleep in your car? so about how many runs do you get?

[Martini]

holy shit, Questions Mcknowsnothing!

usually from like 8am-5pm every day.
Friday you get as many runs as you can get there were some that did only one run some did up to 10 runs.
Saturday you get 3 runs
Sunday you get as many runs till you're out of competition.

[1218shelby]

[Sal]

Ford Racing Mustang Maddness is $70 to race both Sat. & Sun. Gates open at 7am. You have to qualify on Saturday to be able to compete on Sunday. The breakdown of the fee is $50 gate fee, $20 class fee, and if you want to test & tune on Friday it's usually an additional $30. Winner takes home an awesome trophy and $100, Runner-up- smaller trophy and $50, and semis $25 each. ANY Ford powered Ford Mustang of any year can compete!

Thanks Alfredo for answering questions!

:ford::pass:

[Martini]

Sal, can people only do T&T? how much is it for friday only if they can.

[Sal]

Yes, people can only do TnT on Friday but it's $50.

[1218shelby]

ok so how does this work? what time do you show up? do you pay in advanced or at the door? thanks. im gonna show for sure..

[dmark101]

check out their website jaime. i posted this event up in the calendar with the links to the schedule and admissions info. :)

[Martini]

Just show up on friday morning i believe at 8am. you pay in advance.

50 bucks for TnT seems like a lot but thats actually not bad at all when you consider that you're getting more than 4 runs on a very well prepped track.


Edit: Just got the news letter with the schedule.

Friday gates open at 8am, test and tune from 12pm-6pm
Saturday gates open at 7am qualifying racing from 8am-6pm
Sunday gates open at 7am and eliminations

[1218shelby]

[1218shelby]

so i ranned a 13.83 today... my first time at the 1/4 mile... not used to the tree..

[Nicksbluestang]

It doesnt matter if you are not used to the tree. Your time doesnt start until start moving.
Were you on drag radials or on your street tires?
Those are some sorry times for your mods. Whats going on?

[Sal]

Jaime, the whole point is...did you have fun? How many badass race cars were on the property racing with you? This is as HARDCORE as drag racing gets with the exception of the Nationals. PSCA, the West's Fastest Street Cars!

[Martini]

hey Sal, any ways too see the qualifier standings? i wasnt able to race on sunday. and just want to know where i stood in with the rest of the class.

[Sal]

Alfredo, you can see the qualifying order on the PSCA message board. It has all 3 rounds listed. I did notice you only made the last round. I wasn't able to make it out there to hang out with you guys but for sure next Fontana PSCA race.

[Martini]

yeah i had a break down on saturday night so i couldn't stay. i was just wondering if i was the slowest one like last time with my amazing 16.4 dial in.
