Any bracket racers in the house?

Between my 2 Wings I've got data on likely over 60 passes. I'm thinking about maybe using that to figure out my best ET and go bracket racing next summer.

To figure out my best number can I add my ET and my reaction time. In other words once the light turns green does it matter when I trip the beam or just being first w/o breaking out?

I was pit crew for a friend when he did a test and tune at Cayuga with his Dodge. An interesting evening.

How many passes did he make?

IIRC correctly three or four. Some participants don't like drags because of the stand around time. I can't recall the times.

When I go, after each pass I swing past the pits and drop my time slip off to the Squeeze and head back to the staging lanes. Most folks seem to head back to the pits to fiddle and get far fewer passes.

At this point, the rider is probably the weakest link and more passes drops your times faster than more tuning.

That's my thinking exactly.
