I love running high HP cars that go real fast. Usually I am through all the gears and get to focus on the rear view mirror. You get to see some of the best undercarriage shots anyone will ever see. You will get to see if he/she goes red. If it happens then yippie iiaa kiai, if there is no red, well now we're going to have some fun. No use in trying to judge the finish line, let it run out the back door.
Is there a safety issue, I really do not know, but it sure is fun. Once I had to spot a moped several seconds, now that was really interesting. He would park at the finish line and wait for you to get there and just roll his front wheel into the finish line beam. That must have really been weird for him to be just sitting there as a car is approaching at the exact amount of MPH differential between zero. Remember, speed is what it is in it's own enviorment. Ron Ortiz U/SA like I know about speed...................................yes

I couldnt agree more.....bikes too....
Im thinking Stock Eliminator is a bit slow for me at times ![]() Well see in August I think 250+ Will be fun.........Then again Ill probably wear a depends just in case it scares the , stuffing outta me. (On one of my cars I taped a Diaper and a "Camping" ash tray, my dad said I understand the diaper. But I dont understand the ash tray, I said well if I die in the car in a blaze of fire, you can just shake the car a bit and remove the ash tray, no cremation needed) (To any who question my sanity or what Im saying my tounge is firmly impanted in my cheek at the moment, well except for august and 250+)
