Default Re: Top End Tactics

The best advice I ever got was from the late Jim Harrington. He told me to stick a piece of tape inside the door on both sides in the same place about a foot and a half behind the front wheel....if you are chasing someone and get the stripe beyond their front tire...it's time to tap tap tap it in....if you are being chased, discretion must be used of course but if the vehicle reaches that tape, of course, you need to keep that pedal exactly where it is. If they do not reach that tape, then you need to give him back until you can get that taped line about even with his front tire. Something simple and easy that is remarkably easy to duplicate and achieve consistent results from. (and just for the record, i don't believe in that whole hold a half a second and ride the fender...too much chance. leave 3-5 hundreths padding for yourself and ride her til she bucks ya!)
