Race 12 Good race on this one and was decided in the last 100' ( few inches ). Pretty N Pink's mean Camaro catches Dragfool's Nitrofish car at the end and runs a .585 to a losing 1.085.
Race 13 Dial ins are close on this match up. Jimrussells LA Hooker hesitates early and gives the win to Mike11422 and his Jegs car. Mike11422 1.244 to Jim's 1.338.
Race 14 Another great race that is decided at the very end. Both cars leave good, but Eagle's Vette runs down Pretty N Pink's 40 Ford to take the win. Eagle .659 to Pretty N Pink's .844.

Race 16 Both drivers are late on this one. TGM2054's Firebird leaves first and Eagle can't catch him.TGM wins with a .965 to Eagle's losing .937.
Race 17 Doug412 and his H8R sled break out by .001 on this pass....oh so close. Handing the win to Nosub and his Camaro. The Camaro was still able to catch him at the traps. Nosub .650 to Doug's .859.
Race 18 These cars have a big stagger between them. The faster car is going to have his nerves tested. Pceng's Sled driver is on his mark and cuts a perfect .500 light, but it wasn't needed on this run because R&D's Willys breaks out. Pceng runs an .819 to R&D Racing's 1.632.

Great coverage! Luvin' every minute. Cordell, when you get the chance. What kind of chassis do you have in the Merc, think that's what the white car is ? The body is a Dash Motorsports Merc Leadsled, T-Jet chassis, 3.5 ohms sprigs arm, poly mags, shunts & braids. I'm sure a better tuner than I could get more out of it. Larger tires would help but you can only get so height under a sled. |

Race 19 JJWallace runs close to his DIT and collects the win as Ninja's sled slows. JJWall with a .719 to Ninja's .860.
Race 20 Pceng's driver will get the green light first, but is holding on too tight and double steps to bring on the red giving the win to the Escamilla Chicks Camaro. E.Chicks run a .774.
Race 21 KS1933 runs too fast and breaks out on that pass and puts himself on the trailer. Pretty N Pink will take the win and go to the next round. PnP runs a .581 to KS1933's .842.
Race 22 Eagle has to wait for his light....gets anxious and goes early. Mike11422 breaks out, but still gets the win due to Eagles red light. A little luck never hurt anybody. Mike runs a 1.209.

Race 23 Both drivers are a little slow, but their RT's are close. Jimrussell gets the green first....Nosubfor3 launches and runs him down for the win. That Camaro is coming on. Nosub wins with a .647.
Race 24 We are getting down to the end now...tensions are high. Pceng runs an .803 on this run and breaks out to JJWall .714. JJ will be moving onto the semi's.
Race 25 TGM's Firebird gets the rpm's up and leaves first. E. Chicks Camaro launches hard...makes a move to the left and deslots immediately. Win goes to TGM with a .990.
Race 26 This race will decide the final racer to make it to the semis. Very good race! They both want it bad. Mike11422 and his Jegs car leave first, but the black Camaro is a beast and chases him down. Pretty N Pink get the win with a .584 to Mike's 1.231.

Bracket semis are up next. Who's going to the finals. Several strong cars are still in it.
- TGM2054 and his Firebird are solid and have been in the bracket races before.
- JJWallace has never made it this far in the brackets. Could it be his day???
- Nosubfor3's Camaro has been here all day and is looking strong.
- Pretty N Pink and her black Camaro is a beast today....this could be her day.
Good luck to all racers!!

Sorry for the delay. I missed posting some pics. Let me get caught up. We already have both our class winners.
Semi 1 JJWallace's car makes it all the way to the semis and his driver decides to take a nap on the line. He leaves very late and gives this one to Nosubfor3 on a silver platter. Nosub wins with a .655 to JJ's .720. Good job Nosub you are going to the Bracket finals!!
Semi 2 Both of these racers have their game faces on. They cut good lights, but the Firebird goes too fast and breaks out. Pretty N Pink is going to her first Bracket final. PnP runs a .564 TO TGM's .959. Congrats!!
 :-[HERE IS THE BRACKET FINAL MATCH UP
