Default Am I crazy?

I have an Excel spreadsheet documenting every pass I've ever made in my Corvette(minus one pass where I misplaced the slip) with every breakdown of the slip, density altitude for each pass, modifications/tire setup for each pass, and a small note describing the run. Am I crazy or does anyone else do it too?

Nope.

Been recording every pass since I started bracket drag racing 4 years ago.

I guess I'm the odd ball.. I only record my passes on my TAG weather station to help me dial it in..

and IF I make a change to the car i.e. new CAI or new converter I have to delete all my previous runs and start over...

I do have 8 yrs of slips in a plastic bag

Well that's good to know, though I've never bracket-raced it :o

I've got some slips in my glove compartment, old pants, some in a box full of random parts, on my desk, in my closet, and I think I saw one in my trunk the other day.

I know where my best is though.

So yea, you are crazy to me.

I'm going to start logging my runs also this year, right after I start my diet.
