There was also a pretty strong headwind at that race. But yes, a clutch would have more MPH.

wideopen231Must be heads up guy at heart. Guess how I know that one?LOL
Not criticizing. Just always looking to see where there might be little more. Running 3.70's is a job doing it in bracket form is ten time that. Congrads.

"The Bender"Thanks. I think my car cried when I put a dial board back on it this year.............
Shoe polish

That being said, running the PDRA is awesome and with cars in T/D running mostly in the 3's, there are minimal finish line games going on.
