Well I felt like I represented Mazda's and Rotaries well winning the turbo brackets yesterday during Sacramento Raceway's CMI March Madness sponsored by ATP Turbo. It was a field of 18 with EVO's, Civic's, Integra's, a Supra, DSM's and other various cars. This was my only second time out for bracket racing and I wasn't running very consistent. So I didn't think I had a chance at all to advance. The first pass was against an EVO and something happened and he didn't complete his run. Second pass was against another EVO and I don't even know how I got the win. My launch was horrible, I didn't even come close to my dial, but the reaction was decent. Third pass was againt a Supra and he ended up going to fast. 4th pass was a by run, there was only three cars left and I had the best reaction the pass before.

The finals was against a 560 horse Integra with a 11.0 dial and I had a 12.0 dial. I take off and after the 1/8 he FLYYY's by me and crosses the line first. At first I was thinking I didn't make my time, went to slow. But then the way he was moving I started to think maybe he was going to fast. When I picked up the time slip with the WIN on it I was exstatic! He did end up going to fast and I ran my dial.


I was number 113 and stayed in the right lane

Nice!

Like seeing results of cars that are actually on the forum.

 

Congrats!

Still running on 15lbs? A lot of room to cut down on the 60ft mark, nice trap speeds in the 1/8th for a 60mm turbo and 15lbs!

 

Thanks everyone


Yeah, still running 15-16psi.

I was only running 17psi in the tires and was getting some wheel spin. I think I will get to a test and tune day to get the tires dialed in a little bit better and also work on my reaction. This was the first time with the front skinnies and I had to keep the pressures higher before when I was running street tires on the front. So with the skinnies I can play with the pressures a little bit better without getting the crazy sway I was getting before.

 

Good job man!! Congrats!!

 

Good deal, congrats and very nice FC.
