I left the print outs in the tower. Who won FWD and All Motor? Ari won Street? I need to post the results on the website. *edit, I see your sig /\. Congrats!

Great turnout, but so many Louisiana racers scared to run heads up, why????

We had a great time, but what happened to the FWD Quick 8 payout?

Advertised as a 1000 on here and the flyer, then we get a sheet at the gate that says 600, then that gets cut in half due to he field size. I saw at least 6-7 cars qualify, even though only 4 ended up running eliminations...

Isn't the field count based on the amount of cars qualifying? Shouldn't the ladder be based on the amount of cars that qualified? Two cars broke, but we didn't have any bye rounds... Just wondering what happened.

$1000 total payout, not $1000 to the winner.
$600 for the winner $300 for runner up $50 for semis.

Answering my own question here...

It's either a full field or it's not a full field, doesn't matter if it's one less or 5 less.

Is that right?

And as far as bye runs, I guess we still end up in the same spot anyway...

whatever, we had a good time. Wish we could have made the finals a better race. Thumbs up to Redline and Phong for putting together a solid car.

Our best pass was a 10.4 @ 136. 1/8th was a 6.9 @ 112, but we had some issues up top so the mph was down. Redlines car went 10.3@147 on that same pass with a 6.9 @ 111 1/8th. It was fun being fender to fender going that quick... even though it was just a qualifier.

A full field is 9-16 cars. I think...

Thats correct, 7 cars qualified would make it half payout. Same if only 1 car qualified.

That redline car was moving on topend, on the run i had against him he ran 6.90@116 and a 10.25@153 1/4. If that car gets hooked up its gonna be sick.
