  R/T     60'    330'   1/8    MPH    1000'   1/4     MPH     COMMENTS

 1.355   2.174  6.013  9.343  71.630         14.616  95.500   Blown staging, horrible reaction time, bogged start, completely missed 2-3, still crushed my opponent (old style Mustang 5.sl0w)
 0.791   2.202  6.058  9.292  75.470         14.408  97.311   Worse bogging but otherwise ok; beaten by a modified old style Mustang 5.0 on slicks
 0.823   2.322  6.235  9.480  75.108         14.614  96.901   Opponent (Thunderbird LX) deep stages, but starter starts race anyway! Taken by surprise, I bog horribly but still beat him by two seconds
 0.876   2.479  6.669 10.649  57.620         18.403  60.063   My only single car pass of the night, I expect a great launch since I can actually hear my car, yet I get my worst launch of the night.  Disgusted, I back off and do a speedo check through the traps
 1.011   2.135  5.958  9.183  75.913         14.291  97.114   Poor R/T but an otherwise good run! Crushed by an old Cutlass muscle car, though
 0.800   2.183  6.012  9.226  76.112         14.322  97.360   Still can't figure out how to beat the bog - opponents are too loud!
 0.671   2.129  5.953  9.168  75.839         14.280  96.977   Good R/T, bog on launch but best run of the night! Crushed by a 427 Chevy Nova
 0.663   2.113  5.896  9.212  72.362         14.466  95.587   Good R/T, best launch of the night, very sharp 1-2; I have visions of beating the 14.2 barrier but, oh, no! A completely blown 2-3! I recover and still beat my opponent (new style Camaro Z28)
 0.726   2.233  6.155  9.407  74.992         14.554  96.711   Heavy bogging, crushed by a highly modified old style Mustang 5.0
 0.862   2.143  5.999  9.233  75.488         14.364  96.876   Decent run but annihilated by a funny car
 0.573   2.361  6.258  9.499  75.582         14.618  97.073   Great R/T but enormous bog leads to humiliating loss to a Dodge Omni GLH Turbo (a little more road and I would have had him, though - he was only @93.463 through the traps)
 0.851   2.185  6.042  9.371  71.379         14.751  89.544   Yet another completely blown 2-3; frustrated, I do a 3-4 before the traps and call it a night
