Bracket Racing with NCRC at Laguna was a great success! We'll do more
 

The bracket racing at Laguna with NCRC was a success!

It was great to see 25 drivers coming-up with different strategies and plans for their first 30min heat and then do the math on the white board to adjust their dial-in for the 2nd 30min heat.

It is hard to guess what your average lap time is going to be for an hour worth of timed laps! A great experience for all of us. We'll do it again.

The group had everything from fully prepped race cars to a stock scion xB (with a race car driver behind the wheel :-))

Everybody competed against each other. No horse power involved.
You didn't have to be fast, just had to be consistent.

I'll be posting here when we know for sure when the next bracket race is on!

I was wondering if we were going to hear how the event went. Sounds challenging!Any pics from the day?

I have absolutely ZERO pictures! I was too busy driving, instructing, racing
I was in bed by 9:30pm last night!

The usual crowd, more Corvette that Porsche this time around ;-)
a few F430 ... the F40 again (for his second time on the track with us). He also brought along a Renault Turbo 2 !! (Les amateurs apprecieront)

Look for #7

You can also look for me in Ze Miata #63

what was the closest guesstimated time?

P1 at +0.581, P2 at +0.594 and P3 at +0.6xx

Roughly half of the drivers broke out (faster than their dial-in)
Lap times were anywhere from around 1:45 to 2:10

Thanks for posting info about the event, grab some pics next time! I'm still planning on one day running LS under 1:40.
