Wow I just seen this sorry for putting my 2 cents in late....

First off it is WELL KNOWN among local bracket racers that the timing system there is ..well...for a better choice of words...."iffy" at best. The rollout is .20 different between the left and right lane...nearly ALL BOX RACERS there have to swing the box to stay green....and you see it in the time slips on an avg day you are 1-2 slower lane to lane....which adds up with the rollout differance. I know I know its checked out every day...but im telling you first hand this is how it ACTUALLY goes down. Plus if it rains for beg, borrow or cheat your way out of the right lane!!!!! I have watched 10-12 red lights in a ROW happen and no one stops to wonder why.

I had a slip in my dragster from there last year where I was 14 mph down on the brakes, had the same 1000ft as my time shot and broke out by .035...HUH...and it said I took .05 stripe....I had a wheel on him at best!!!

For what its worth I was swinging my box lane to lane all weekend at the National except for 1 time shot and I was -.015 red....It was a self imposed test to see if they were using 66's timing equipment or thier own.

I still race there....but I will tell you It makes me real nervous when I get those slips some days.
