congrats.... btw, anything below .500 is a redlight right <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

.400 on a protree is the best you can do without red lightin

nothing like beating down your dad at the track <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

.000 is now a "perfect" light. So if you cut a .550 last year, it would be a .050 this year. Pro tree is also the same way (.000 perfect light)

So, if you redlight is it a negative? Like -.100? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

EDIT: Nevermind I just read the link.

Default pretty good night at the track last night..

went to Gainesville and though I didn't beat my best time of 13.16 I did run a 13.17 and 13.18 with a few low and mid 13 sec passes. I gained a new best mph of 108 on my last three runs against a supercharged 4.6 GT (we were pulling the same mph and about the same time, it was really fun) and all my reaction times were between .189 and .559 with my avg being .423.

Needless to say it pretty sweet.... especially when I spanked my dad on our first run of the night.
me-13.17 him-13.84 (his car is a 2000 SS)
