Really? Couldn't you tell that it was a "time only" run? If you haven't been involved in drag racing like I have "time only" runs are for dialing in your engine and not "cutting a light" Sheese...

They used a pro light, so I figured he would have cut a normal reaction time.

Nope sorry still wrong. BTW, pro lights is all they use now. Christmas tree lights are antiquated.

I'd prefer a pro light. It seems easier to use.

I don't know anything about drag-racing, and have only been a couple times as a guest of a huge fan. I had to admit, it was pretty cool to see that stuff up-close and in person.

We have a great drag-strip near me called Byron Dragway. I don't know if they have levels of drag-strips with regard to the NHRA or not; and if so, what level this strip is -- but it gets a lot of people on weekends. Once in a while I'll ride by it. If I time it right I'll pass right when they take-off. Loud is all I can say. Really loud.

375 kph. 233 mph. A car that heavy you're looking at about 5,000 HP.
