I guess it varies from one racetrack to another. In Napierville, Qc, ET DOES include the reaction time. I know because if I took the reaction time off my ET, I almost got the same time on all 3 runs. But on my first race, I had a RT of over a second, so my ET was crappy. My second was 0.3 second (best ET), and the third was 0.78 sec, with a ET of 16.805

Next time I race over there I'll ask to make sure, but I'd be amaze if they told me otherwise.

that track is ran by a moron if it is true, but i believe you juyst screwed uyp big time on the one where you had a shitty time cuz of a long RT, this is how it works, after the last yellow lights a timer starts, it takes .500 for the green to light, which is why .5 is perfect RT (unless on a pro tree) then when your tires le the beam connect again, timer stops and thats your RT, and begins at the same time and then when you go through the beam at the end, it stops and thats your ET.

you can sit there for 20 seconds and still run a 16 because the ET timer isnt running yet, its still waiting to put up your reaction time, then you go and run a 16 and your ET is not 36.00, it would be 16.00

I stand corrected...

Just came back from there, and I studied my race slip this time...

I raced against a 300ZX 2+2 auto. He had an ET of 16.33 with a RT of 0.6.

I had an ET of 16.768 @ 84 with a rt of 0.7. And the race slip says he won by a margin of 0.5.

So you were right!

2 questions now:

What's a good ET with a stock 96 Teg RS? (Am I such a bad driver?)

What are the best shift point with my car?

well, is yours sedan or hatchback? if sedan it isnt TOO bad, I think the sedan is like 200 pounds more or so? not sure off hand but there is an average of .2 seconds more right there, and I saw a couple of LS hatches running 16 flat with just short ram intake. even though the RS is lighter I believe it is not much lighter, so shouldnt bee too much quicker there. so yours stock running a 16.7 is alright, I dont see an intake dropping .7 and watching these guys launch i believe they could do better so after time you should do alot better, but at least you arent up in the 17's.
