- The tree doesn't impact your ET, that's only for reaction time. Clock starts when your tire leaves the beam. Looks like he had a decent hole shot to me.
Then what's the point of having a tree? He who crosses the finish line first, wins. Regardless of the faster car. I know, I know, he wasn't racing anybody else. Just sayin | |

| Someone/something has to line you up and say "GO". Why not automate the process? | |

| No sh@t lol. Top fuel drag cars are milliseconds apart. It's usually always the guy who gets off the line first that wins. That's all I meant by it. I've raced at the strip before. Bracket racing. Getting off that line is everything..... Either way, that Riv is awesome | |

| In bracket racing, if both cars happen to run exactly their predetermined time, the win goes to the driver with the better reaction time. Thats how it was explained to me anyway... | |

| My point was it doesn't matter if he left right on green or sat there for 3 secs after green. He'd have ran the same 12.75 sec 1/4 mile either way. Can't improve ET with reaction time. The tree only matters when you're racing against another driver. _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30 3.4" pulley • AL104 plugs • 180º t-stat • FWI w/K&N • 1.9:1 rockers • OR pushrods • LS6 valve springs • SLP headers • ZZP fuel rails KYB GR2 struts • MaxAir shocks • Addco sway bars • UMI bushings • GM STB • Enkei 18" EV5s w/ Dunlop DZ101s • F-body calipers EBC bluestuff/Hawk HP plus • SS lines • Brembo slotted discs • DHP tuned • Aeroforce • Hidden Hitch^^^ SOLD ^^^ '70 Ninety-Eight Holiday Coupe 455cid • 116k miles^^^ SOLD ^^^ | |
