Maybe it would be better to go back to his race at Milan years ago. .015 .015 .015 .015 .015 and .014. He said he staged .001 deep in the final. Haha. Sometimes the best racers just have days like that!

That seems like a lot of work collecting data, how about NHRA simply check our Stock and SS cars for properly wired systems. IE. brake pedal activated 2 steps in stock, any electronic delay or advantage other than the mechanical delay of the approved transbrake switch in SS? Just to be fair for everyone, NHRA can check my cars first! Has anyone had their car checked? Tom Nolan

Narrowing victories down to reaction times is narrow minded. The great racers that consistently win have many things going for them. They are masters of manipulation with the cars they race. They prepare themselves and the car well beyond what people realize. They are not afraid to dial up in almost any situation. They look at a time slip differently than most. And they race more in one year than most of us do in 3 years. Beyond that they are talented individuals that put it all out there to succeed. They are also great stagers. Enough about these guys cheating. If anything, they are very clever when it comes to all phases of racing.

First I have to write a great quote from Henry Ford " It's amazing how lucky I am, told by the competition and funnier the harder I work the luckier I get" I do not think that this thread was pointed at anyone, just Mr. Kennedy wanting to know about one way to calculate RT using the Bell system.

By the way I don't think to those who insinuated or implied that I was Concerned about Dan Fletcher I just simply think he is a very good driver and does not need a device to win (FYI) so drop this about Old Dan and I I do have a concern about other drivers based on The Stats That I have that they are using a illegal way of leaving the starting line . I do Like the Trust but verify saying by Ronald Reagan enough of this i am done with this got to work some time lol

I just would like to see cars being checked on a regular basis. Spot pit area check.....a couple of jack stands.....show tech official how things work? No need to accuse anyone of cheating......trust and verify! Isn't that what NHRA does with alcohol and drug testing? If your clean your clean! If you are not well then things need to conform to the rules.
