Default Just got back from the track, new best time and video to come!

Went to Mason Dixon dragway today w/ ZachW04Stang to test out how the HCI performs. Here's the best time:

RT: .546
60': 1.9
1/8: 8.900
1/4: 13.89
MPH: 99.09

The car spun like crazy off the line too (and yes the tires were plenty warmed up). I'd guess I've got another half a second to gain.

My friend Josh (LCBlackDep183) came and recorded the run, which I'll have up later.

Reaction time doesn't play any factor in your ET.

Bracket racing or just test and tune your RT isnt factored into your ET, you could sit at the tree forever

If you were to pull a 1.6 ft time you would run a 13.40 to 13.50. That is pretty sweet.
