You can't jump the time. Each lane is timed separately and the time starts whenever the car crosses over the beams. So they could take off whenever they want it doesn't matter, you get the same time.

I think what you may be trying to say is he got a better reaction time

He didnt jump anything and didnt even jump the gun at the start,he clearly out launched the gtr driver and just got a way better reaction time.

look at the time slip as its not a red flag run.

and even if it was it dose not matter as he would of still ran the same time with just a - reaction time.

Congrats that thing is moving !

actually he could inprove on his reaction time a tad also.Iv seen people get .003-004 times.

What's with death metal Renntech now?

I have this image of old Bob shaking his head as the music is blaring.

Go Renn!! You guys have come a long way from the comfort power kinda angle.

Jim, you crack me up :rofl:

As for the mods, I'm going to take a stab at it (this may not be accurate, just a guess at this point):

- RENNtech's Bigger Pulley
- RENNtech's upgraded IC pumps
- RENNtech's Short-Style Headers
- RENNtech ECU Tune
- RENNtech/OS Giken LSD

That's pretty cool, but it still sounds odd.
