I completed the Doug Foley's Drag Racing school in Oct of 06 and they called me back to bracket race a dragster. I was the only girl of 8. I ended up having the fastest time & mph of the day...even though I broke out in the semi-finals. It was still an awesome time! What more can you ask for on ur birthday?? Greatest B-day EVER!! :)

awesome! did they have you guys leaving off a trans brake or footbraking the cars? If a trans brake, was there a delay box in the car? I'm curious how he runs the school vs. jim harringtons school.

And yeah, the left lane at atco is "tight and slow" meaning your reaction time will tend to be a few thousandths quicker, which means the ET will then be a few thousandths to a hundredth slower

Left on a footbreak. It was a lot of fun. I would def do it again the next time he holds another event.
