11.98 at LVMS (VIDEO)

Here's the video...better late than never...from last Wednesday night.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lu8WqAm2D48

Track D.A. was 4500'.
The time was 11.98 at 115 mph.

As for the "great reaction time," according to the driver (my son) he was looking back to his left to see when the C6 Vette was going to stage and just as he looked, the Vette staged and the starter hit "go." Since it was a "pro tree" he didn't have much time to recover. I was tempted to report that "we agreed to give the Vette the "go" and still caught him at the end of the track," but that would not be accurate. Regardless, the time stands.

The D.A. conversion shows the car at 11.46 at sea level.
