WHAT ALL OF IT MEANS

To understand what everything means on your time slip, refer to the glossary below. Throughout the course of your race, various data points are recorded by the track’s timing system, so even if you’re unable to make a full pass (maybe you blew an intercooler boot after the 330-foot mark), you can still piece together the type of trajectory you were on. Armed with the info on this tiny sheet of paper and the various drag racing calculators available online, you can even guesstimate your 0-to-60 mph time or how many G’s your truck pulled on the launch. In this example, notice that the left lane red-lit. The offending truck was deep-staged on a Sportsman tree. •R/T = reaction time

•60’ = how quickly you made it to the 60-foot mark

•330 = how quickly you made it to the 330-foot mark •1/8 ET = eighth-mile elapsed time

•1/8 MPH = eighth-mile trap speed

•1,000 = how quickly you made it to the 1,000-foot mark •1/4 ET = quarter-mile elapsed time

•1/4 MPH = quarter-mile trap speed
