Re: G/SA Current Record
Just because somebody spanks you in a heads up doesn't mean they have a $100.000.00 car. Could be they know more and work harder. Sounds like et brackets are more your speed.

Re: G/SA Current Record
I only have a bracket car ed. That said the number of heads up races in eliminations that are 11.44 to 11.46 are uncommon and that's not a theory read the internet. They are usually 10.55 to a 10.79 and the 10.79 guy usually cuts a .005 and the other guy is .123 . Everything besides the pros and comp is a bracket race anyway so why should with an under factored car get a gift rd? What kind of car you got ed?

Re: G/SA Current Record
All I can do it try to help them get some hp. Best to try to avoid them on the ladder.

Re: G/SA Current Record
I'm with you Ed, take the heads ups out, I'm out. AND, I have never had a heads up in elims....
If you don't want to work on your car, don't..... Those of us that want to don't need you changing the rules for us, or for that matter, because of us. Wade |
