Are you really 70yrs old? Well then bully for you sir! An inspiration for all these young coot's. 
Bracket racing is not about how fast you are, it's about how consistent you can be. There is a lot of technique needed to be a good bracket racer and you must have it down pat. Congrats on all of your wins, I have only 3 trophy's from the last 2 years only one of which is a runner up for bracket racing.

Really 70
trever1t, yeah, I am 70, Sept.26,2007. Born of course 1937.
I agree, being consistent and having great reaction times wins! As tarinitup said, in finals i raced a 6.8 sec camero, and beat him with reaction time. He had .236 and I had a .097!
Race and be safe!

Good Job Goat, there was a nice L at the track Sat. and if we were bracket racing he would of whooped us all, he ran 3 straight runs of 12.85, 12.84, 12.85, I have never seen that before, we all need to meet up somewhere in the middle sometime, Ennis, Baytown, Kennedale, before it gets too cold. As far as reaction time the last 2 big GTG we had "POPS" from Louisiana whooped all of our young buts on reaction time under .2 each time, that old man had it down
