Seems like the most common thought on a couple post here lately...won or lost...I can't wait to get out of here... Even retirees...

Oops, you are correct. 42 minutes for 50 pair of SC cars. Darn NEW MATH!


When everything is coming your way, your probably in the wrong lane.

I'm typically 20-25 sec burnout to pre-stage, but I've slowed my routine down because everyone else takes so long. Had one run where the starter stopped me to make sure my door was closed, and was still pre-staged in 31.

Watched some of the Fling Allstars. Brannon and Gary Williams in doorcars, burnout past the line to prestaged, 30 sec. (One of GDub's runs: 10!) Some pairs of dragsters, burnout to pre-stage in 40. Cory Gulitti in the dragster: 30, 36.

Actually that was in jest. Last race I was at I loaded up, then sat in a lawn chair under the shade tree and listened to the tower on my radio. Probably sat there listening to the blood bath for 3 hours.

All good...But hang around here long enough and you'll get what I said... Smile
