Improving ones reaction time does not affect your final ET time.

I never said it did......
but
if u get started .152 secs BEFORE your competitor, don't you reach the top of 1320 BEFORE him ...unless he could make up that deficit to get to the finish line first ???

(the trademark :roll: )

u can discuss that further amongst your pardners....

sounds consistent........
I hit 59mph with the basic Nissan frontier (TD27 NA diesel) 4dr pickup & it was worth 21.7secs down the 1/4. Was able to drive 4th gear for about 3 of those secs

Link only when you move the clock starts. Example I would want to be build enough boost to leave hard so more than likely my competitor would have already gone with the green light but that does not mean he ran a faster time or won the race :wink:

CAMDEN is in Couva next to National Helicopters ......... Duane posted Google map directions in a previous thread referring to Camden

Anyways, from the Couva interchange, simply head straight west to Couva following the road signs. Turn right at the Camden intersection (controlled by traffic lights) you will see (& follow) the signs directing you to the heliport.
Camden Raceway is on that same access road.

The journey time from highway to Camden is about 6 or 7 minutes

very encouraging competition developing between the TTUNDRA & Horizon Motorsports members ........
there was a roughly equal split between the 70-plus entrants for Sunday's drag race event...
with both sides stating additional late entries up to 2pm tomorrow (Saturday) expected !!!
.
we'll see who will turn out the 'winningest' set of competitors in Sunday's blowout :wink: :!: :!:

good luck & safe, competitive racing to all !!!
