Those are some great times Steve.
Wish I could have made it but was stuck at a customer's plant. Ticked me off 'cause the plant was just down the road at the 605 and 60.

Also...

Actually isn't your best RT in Run #3?
You had a .291 there...that is about 40% faster as a .500.
Hell, I am 56 so I am not that much younger.
I would like to just have a consistent low .100 sec range (.100 to .175). (Below those numbers will now be called RTL (Reaction Time Luck) for me.....lol)

A LOT of good races are won or lost by a distance of less than .100 secs. and that is usually the racer with the slower RT (higher number) was the looser.
A .500 RT is about 1/2 a car length on a high 12 sec run in the 1/4 (so wouldn't it be more than a 1/2 of a car length in the 1/8 like about 3/4?).

I see a lot of the professional drag racers that have high RT numbers in the .020-.060 range. Now that is doing an excellant job timing the last yellow to the muscle reaction time to actual brake piston release. They make me sick because a lot of them aren't even that young...like John Force.
