What is your worst reaction time

How about worst RT and still win the round.....

This story is true and I have the track paper writeup to prove it.....

I was bracket racing.....footbraking my Vega in SuperPro....Car was running around 9.7's....

Had a .00x Rt in the qtrs......had to race someone in the semi's that was prone to make mistakes so I said to myself a couple times before we staged...."don't foul whatever you do"!......he was dialed about 10.90..... The tree came down on my side and I froze on the bottom bulb.....when I finally hit the pedal I knew I was WAY late.......ran down there and saw his nose never drop so I hit the brakes......I was +.23 green......and my opponent broke out!.....I went in for the final and was again .00x and my opponent, a much better racer, was .01.....I pedaled hard and ran dead on for the win as I slid by him.............So my worst winning RT was .73 on a .500 tree....
