Rich watch the show ,I was driving purple Challenger I was disqualified for running 9.69 after track came around qualified at a 9.87 thats 1.8 differance.Brian says during show I picked up 2.5 to 3 tenths it seems I was hosed he didn't add correctley.There was other cars running 9.70's and 69's He made a big mistake and I had to pay I think you better get more people in tower that know's racing and numbers.

I gotta question for you. Since this show is supposed to have a "street" racing kind of feel what with going with the armdrop and all. How are they timing you? Are they still using the tracks timing system as soon as you break the beams or what?

I watched the show myself (again this morning) and when Brian Bossone was ciphering your time I didn't quite understand why it would be so hard... You guys run in a certain window correct? So if you go too fast or too slow you'll either lose or get the boot...

Is Brian ciphering correction factors in the tower? Or did your car just have it's best run ever and he can't read a computer printout?!

By the way nice Challenger man!

Yes they still have the beams on and use it to start and finish.I figure 1.8 is not bad since 9.87 was when it was hot and muggy and after sundown and all the quick eight cars layed down alot of rubber it ran the 69.Car usually runs 70's but after all the water on track from storm I thought 87 was not bad. Ciphering is correct I'm thinking he was using his fingers and counted 69 on first finger 79 on second and used his third for the half and that's how he came up with the 2.5 to 3 tenths.Thanks for the compliment

Ha' Brian can't count! I believe it! Still a bum rap though on the show man.

TTT

THAT SUCKS !

Watching that show right now and it just showed him 2-3 times counting the numbers and looking at his figures while doing it. I dont see how a guy that calls him self a racer would have a hard time figuring out the difference between 9.69 and 9.87, even a 5th grader could see that is less then .2 and he wouldn't even need to use his fingers.

They need to get someone else doing that job instead of someone that just wanted more camera time.

dude that is some bs i know i saw that episode but i cant remember what one it is but i have demand so im going to watch it right know and i dont see why it takes them so long eather your in the window or you now it takes them like a min to figure out how hard is it to fuc*en two number togeather it sould be instant

I saw that also. I couldn't believe someone else on the crew didn't catch that mistake.

They should offer some sort of compisation to him.

I've had the same improvment in times from the high humidity hot day to the wet cool night after lots of good rubber has been laid down with my 95 S-10 with a vett engine.

The PINKs crew sucks now. They've lost their way an I hope they can get back on track.

first of all this isn't BRACKET RACING... ########### wants people 2 run all out. U ran all out and got penalized B.S. My car picks up a tenth or more if conditions change so these guys need a roll of quarters and buy themselves a CLUE!!!
