They have broken stuff putting it up on the bumper to get that quick. Practice makes perfect.

almost all the top dr cars been on the bumper more then once as phill knows im sure of..its all in working the power in right for each track an keeping a good handle on it.

frances 4.66 would be around a 7.20 or so in the 1/4..
