Reaction doesnt count for crap really. You could sit at the light for 5 seconds and then go and your run would still be a 13.6.
Last time down to BG, I sat for about 2 seconds trying to get the revs right and got a 13.3 on the run. lol

I see where your coming from. But instead of bashing me about my reaction times. Saying they dont mean crap. You coulda snuck a "good job" in there.

Yea, I wasnt talking to you Aaron. 
I personally dont like staging too deep. Ive got a few red lights by doing it so usually I will trip the second bulbs and then creep forward about 4". Works best for the G8 with its tiny stall.

If you are actually racing someone reaction time means a hell of a lot!

Reaction time is a big deal but most of the guys I know only care about there ET. I can't remember the last time I had a conversation about someone's reaction time. I never race the guy beside me so it wasn't something I personally worried about.

In that case then it doesn't matter except for personal reasons. I am always trying to get better. I also plan on running in a class at some point (no electronics) so I always try to get better.

Made a first few passes and won 2 rounds at Chandler last night. 9.99 sec @ 69.13 . Best r/t was .2 something(on the 9.99 run). Got video of me making that run. Cant wait to improve that time.

8.60@83mph.. Didn't help that it has the factory gearing again.
Mod update:
-UMI
LCA's
Panhard Rod
SFC's
Tunnel mount Torq arm- exhaust has to be modified!
Line lock
255 granatelli fuel pump
Soon to come, circle D converter, tune, and hopefully a cam! Possible small nitrous shot afterwards.
