RE: times

[sm=oopssign.gif]Yeah your right technically no it does not since the timer doesn't start until you cross beams, I wasn't thinking clearly due to some other $h1t that is going on at work right now.I was thinking ofthe 60ft'r. However I do stand by my statement that 3.73's will not drop you 7/10's of a second.

It is slightly possible that he could run a lower 13.5 or lower, but it is not very probable. The average driver will not take a 3.73 + DR car that low.

remember, he's an auto... it's not going to take off as much as a manual would (as in, you can't "drop the clutch", or "slide out of it")
