.509 on the sportsman tree! Its pretty much all luck. Does anyone know where i can run on a pro light cause im interested to compare the 2. Whenever i go to regular drag nights its alway sportsman. Do they have the option of running pro or they just cant do it? Thanks

My best r/t is a .007 with .000 being perfect. Our track has always used this type of timing system. I usually hit .100 or so. I don't think you can ever get enough practice at launching.

Best of .502 on a sportsman tree (all tracks here run it), with an average of .515 -&gt; .575 on the bracket days.

My friends I always went to the track with and pitted with were constantly pushing me to cut a good light. That and I spent many hours at the drag strip between rounds using a tree simulator.

oWn3D!

Damn, you planned that out, didnt you, lol

I did all the Math. I didnt have anything to remind me if it was pro-tree or kid-tree, so i just did them all.

Total for the year is a sub-par .707.
