Default Re: Kurt Johnson got SCREWED!

Kurt got Major screwage. ...you can clearly see his car did not move and Vinnie's did.
The fact that the 60' was way off adds to the possibility of a timer malfunction.
There were also some suspect R/T's in that round of Pro Stock Bike
Regardless of what The Compulink people will tell you ,their system can and does screw up. ....I have several videos of a somewhat similar malfunction from Numidia Dragway where the stage and prestage lights go out and then come back on, or all the lights on the tree on one side go out and come back on, causing major R/T issues.
This was eventually determined to be caused by a dirty fibre optic connection at the tree!
once it was cleaned the problem went away!
Incidently ,before cleaning the connection ,Bob Dimino's manager called Compulink after seeing the videos,and they said that what was happening, was not possible.
