Improviz

Reaction time does not affect the measured ET. The clock doesn't start until your tires break the beam; you can sit there and eat a candy bar first and it isn't added in.

He probably bogged on that flyer run, or slipped the clutch too much, but it wasn't R/T that caused him to get a 13.0.

Not spinning anymore! The Drag radials are like sticky glue. I went down to 15 psi and used a higher rev power brake. no diff 2.000, all day on 28 psi, 20 psi and 15 psi. 5.5 330 times 8.4 1/8th @ 87 unchanged all 4 runs. My times with a 1100-1200 rpm Power brake were the same whaen i used a 1700 rpm or 2200rpm. Car is sitting Im just not jumping out. I will try and raise the car UP! Anything else I can do to get into the 1.8-1.9 range. Actually Im not sure power braking is helping at all. Since the tires are planted should I go to 3k rpm? Will the lower psi slow me down? I have run so many time now I am at the point something needs to be changed to crack 13. I tried changing the altitude by going to a lower track, sad it was 85 degrees and even at 700 ft the DA was 2700.. UGH!!! Please if anyone does 1.8 60 ft times in a BNZ please pm me your tech!

Correct Impro

While not affecting his time it did have an effect of him losing that run. I think Evil meant his slow reaction time is why I beat him accross the other beam at the other end, while my run was .3 slower. His reaction time was nearly .6 slower than mine .

Yes your statement is on the money!!
R/T caused him to be a tiny bit behind me at the end of the 1/4 mile distance.

Thanks for pointing this out.
