TTS presented by Quarter Master

Corvettes, Camaros, Mustangs, and other domestic built cars are not eligible to compete in the TTS. Exceptions include an import now powered by a domestic engine (Ex. 240sx w/LS1 swap). Also allowed will be a domestic now powered with an import engine.

• Drag Racing
  Spend Saturday trying to get your best quarter mile time.
• Solo Auto-X
  Compete in either the Friday night or Saturday night Solo Auto-X.
• Time Attack
  Take your car around the Road Course for three 20 minute sessions to achieve your best lap time.

Points
Your quickest time from each event is used. Each event is worth the same amount of points. The highest total points from the 3 events will declare the winner of each class.
Points will be awarded for completing each event based on a percentage of your time in relation to the event winner's time. Lowest time of each event will receive 1000 points. Individual scores will be calculated as follows:

• Your Time - Winning Time = Difference
• Difference / Winning Time = Percentage Factor
• (1 – Percentage Factor) x 1000 = Event Points

Example Lowest Event Time: 45.183 sec - 1000 points
Joe Smith's Time: 46.118 sec – 979 points
46.118-45.183=.935
(.935/45.183)=.0207
(1-.0207) x 1000 = 979

There are 2 classes for this event:

• TTSU Unlimited
  Any modifications allowed, tires are unrestricted.
• TTSS Street
  Must have 140+ treadwear tires, headlights, taillights and interior (full OEM dash, heater, 2 seats, and carpet).

Guess I'm going to have to ask for Friday off now.

[H2Beg]

Open drag on Friday FTW

Proving Grounds is THE race every year, and we have a ton of fun. It's a shame that with all these big name sponsors, there's still no payouts for anything. I thought that was the whole point of a company paying money/parts, to be the class sponsor, offering something to the winner?

Since nobody wants to do it, I personally will hand $100 to the winner of RS/U. We have some good teams in that class, the people coming from Chicago, and they shouldn't go home empty handed. /money-meets-mouth.

[SlowEGG]

truth

[Shane@DBPerformance]

They have like $3000 in payouts for the road course stuff and some to the TTS. I wonder if they are adding some for the drag racing.

[Shane@DBPerformance]

Any Honda guys running in the TTS or the time Attack? They have FWD Time Attack classes.
