[Dan Lattimore]

I'm old but this is how I remember it . If it makes no sense just ignore it and chalk it up to my DOB ------If I spot my opponent one bulb and he leaves the instant he sees the green (not the last yellow) he left 5 tenths on the tree. If I leave the instant I see his car move I essentially left on
my last yellow ( not the green ) and most of that 5 tenths head start just evaporated. ------- Back in the seventies IHRA used the pro tree for S/Stock and Stock . Richard Griffin and Terry Earwood driving Hemi Mopars had it figured out and was killing everybody including me. Terry told me all he had to do was watch my quarter panel clear his ft. fender and hit it . Caught me in second gear and rode me to the finish line. I'm dead on or under and he's in by 2 or 3 tenths. IHRA dropped it the next year. Any of you other antiques remember this. By the way I learned from it and loved it when the shoe was on the other foot.
