Night at the Track
Well last night was my first at the track with the CTD, there were some other forum members there too-- good time had by all.
Not really familiar with the stories all the numbers tell, except of course the final one. I'll post the best slip below, the more experienced at the track here can decipher them for me. The most fun run I had was beating a late model Ford SVT Lightning with supercharger and nitrous... he was faster overall (his 102 mph vs my 95.2) but I beat him by virtue of better reaction time at the light. Boy did I get the stink-eye from him going across the finish line!!
For the best time slip I had:
Reaction: .096
I1: 1.849
I2: 5.552
I3: 8.692
I3 MPH: 79.114
I4: 11.423
E.T.: 13.76
MPH: 96.650
So, whaddya think??

R/T at .096 is pretty darn good, no matter what kind of light system.
I assum I1:1.849 is 60' time; that is also very good.
1/8 time seems ok, but should be better based on 60' time.
Same with 1/4 ET and mph, should be better based on 60' time.
If you beat a SVT Lighting at that ET then I suspect he had problems. I have ran a few and I need to be in the 12s to have a chance most of the times. With that 60' time I am normally in the 12.7-8s ET range at around 106-107mph.
