This may be a dumb question, but how do you win in bracket racing? I know you put an ET down, but what how do you know what to put, how to race, and what time to run to win. I've won a few times, but each time seems different. Thanks for the easy help.

 

I hope i'm not playing for real money.

 

cool game!

This will come in handy for those very slow days at work

 

the trick to bracket racing is consistency. basically, you want to get as close to your dial-in time without going over. check out the game's FAQ, it explains it in detail

 

I really suck at this...the best ET I can get with the stock civic si is 17.3

 

Do like 5 races and see what ETs you get.

Then put the lowest ET as your Dial-in.

To get a consistant time work on launching the same way each time (Same RPM, stage in the same spot, etc.) Then work on shifting at the same RPM each time.

I'm not great but I'm consitant within .2 I sometimes will run like a time like .5 below I normally do. Don't know why.

With FWD vehicles you can get a better dial in if you stage deep.

Thank's,,,,I looked for the FAQ but didin't find any, now that I've looked more I've found them, haha

I've ran a best of 16.0 something, consistantly around 16.3 and just set the ET to 16.00, might change that to 16.05 or 16.1. Almost got enough money for some drag slicks, already have the AEM intake. Anyone want to race me sometime I'm MOOF II

 

I'll race ya. I'm pimpin03. My best ET is 16.2 I've got a cold air intake, new plugs, nitto 555 slicks, autometer gauge, hi-flow cats, and exhaust.

 

when they get done with thier problems, I'll race ya.

 

The site has been down for maintenance for the past hour. They need to get it working again. I wanna race!

 

I've been trying to launch it like every 5 mins hoping it'll be back up

 

we are addicted!!!
by the way: its still down

 

i'm "harley#356" on there.
anywya, how do you work the gas? is there more to it than just clicking and dragging with the mouse? or is that it?
its like impossible for me to know how far i'm staged cuz the view from the very rear
cool game though

 

The gas is just click and drag.

To stage I like to get up close and then stop when I hit the first light. I can then just put it in first with no gas and it'll slowly roll forward. Just drop it back to neutral to stop.

Over on the left of the screen is a overhead view of the drag strip. When you are staging it shows the two yellow lights, the green area, and a line as your car so you can see where you are staging

BTW, the update they did requires you to do another download !!!!
