It was not shown or I just missed it trying to see through the crowd. I was against the inner fence near the line.
Also, the weather was not good at all. It was around 65 degrees but the humidity was 90-100%. And the famous swamp dew was on everything including the track. Drivers were wiping the dew from thier cars so it wouldn't fly off and onto the track.
Dew at night quite often screws up the night time racing down here.

I was also looking over all the numbers and comparing to other cars.I like to do that with all the new quick times and or record cars..We all should do this!!.
I keep the quickest copy of the SL55 timeslip in my car, just so I have baseline to look at..
I do not see a quick back half on Tm02 slip. I compared to the other 2 cars within .18 range ET.. Mods, 60 ft, 1/8 th mile and trap seem very , very close to each other.. These cars all picked up about 7 MPH on the back half.. So 3 cars all in the same general ET range and mph changes..
Here is Nate`s slip. To bad he had to run way up in the mountains..

MBWorld Fanatic!
I have always gone by NHRA rules. Record runs must be made at a sanctioned event (MBworld track day for example) and inspected. Any record run must be backed up within 1 tenth of a second to be valid. I know this is all for fun. Just saying, if you want to get technical.
