Congratulations to the winners I will sort out the prizes and post that a little later. A special thanks to the host Tim Ranch, and his family for helping out and putting up with us all day Saturday, and to the Drivers who did a SUPER job staying away from Red Lights and keeping the cars clean. A special thanks to St Louis racer Greg Skelton who discovered the computer glich and fixed it in time for the bracket race. I hope all the racers got some mesure of enjoyment from the race, and will race with NTRA in future events.

I got a question... How'd my GTO get into the quarters when I got beat in round 3? Did someone 'break' and 'not make the call'? Curious, since you said it was a single elimination race. At least I know both of my cars are actually running better now! And I learned that my GTO makes a GREAT bracket car! LOL! ;D Congrats to all the entrants and to the winners, This was a GREAT success, I would say! ;D Also congrats to the drivers, and to Kdog and Tim. Hmmm...we need a 'webcam' for the next event! Maybe even make a 'video' of the races and make it available to all the entrants! OK..so I'm 'thinking out loud'...LOL. Ron (Bondo)

Thank you to Kdog, Tim R. and all involved in putting on the race. It was great racing you fast1rp in the bracket final. Looks like I lucked out. Wow! .0005 was my margin of victory over Walt in the heads up race 1st round. That's some close racing! It was great racing with all of you. Congratulations on your win Jet. I'm looking forward to more NTRA events in the future.

Congartulations to Jet and Chima. You two ran great all day. I'd have to go back and look, but I think Jet might have had low et for every round oh the heads up race. He said that he had a couple tricks that he was keeping for himself. At least my Dodge lost to Tjetcar's Charger. That makes it a little better.
Once again thanks to Kdogs and Tim and the rest for holding this event.

Tjet car, the race you lost was in bracket racing. I'm guessing the other guy ran closer to his dial in or the driver cut a better light.

440gtx, I was rooting for your Ford in the heads up race. You did us blue oval guys proud. ;D

SKR, it's strange that the ford ran like that there. On my track it never got down into the teens. My Dodge on the other hand ran consistant 1.15 to 1.20 every run here. On Tim's track the Dodge ran mid 20's most of the day. The Dodge does like a little longer warm up but I didn't tell them that.
