Both of these are completely different records and absolutely amazing!

Yeah he leaves pretty lazy but is capable of leaving much harder. Remember he did this on a marginal track. Once he gets to Holly Springs I think we will see a 4 sec pass.

Sweet! You guys waste no time! Do you guys ever plan on making one of the Lights Out races at SGMP? I want to finally catch up with Nick at the track but it hasn't worked out yet. I know I won't get to go to Bowling Green this year because my daughter will be in a wedding around that time.
