yeah its different on a pro trett becuase the starter has to activate the autostart and it hard to time out your run..

come race against me, you will learn to cut some good lights, ...... or quit

you will most likeley get me at the end of the track, unless we are in a bracket

here are some results from my local track for example http://texasraceway.com/result.../2005

Yes, I got it, we watched it about 100 times, I love that video. Now I'm just trying to figure out how to save it on my computer as a video file so I can email it to Ara. I told one of Ara's partners he has to set up the computers to play that video everytime he goes on. Thanks a lot for that, it's a great vid you took.

Criag, I can send him a copy too. Or I'll see if I can compress it and post here on HT. I think it would be pretty cool to see you take Ara to school at the tree..

yeah, dont go on GREEN, like you asked. LOL

i was around dragstrips for a few years before i raced on one... and rode in cars during some test n tune.

so my first time out, i was cutting .503 on a sportsman tree.... maybe .6 if i was sleeping. all day

jsut practice, look for a 'PRACTICE TREE' online, i always use one the day before i go to the strip..... dont know if it helps, but if you get the jump on the other guy..... its worth it,


its up to HIM to catch you.

Yeah, I'd love to be able to save it on my computer, if you could do that, that would be great.
