Re: Biggest handicap start you've seen/been a part of
 

On Sunday I had to run Mike Anderson in his Top Sportsman car in the final at Sumerduck. I'm dialed 8.25 in the stocker and he is dialed 4.92. Mike is .007 and dead on 7 at 140mph... I'm .017 and 1 over at 81.5mph.

Biggest chase I have been a part of yet. At the MPH cone I figured I was getting there by .02-.03, turns out I'm behind. 60mph gaps are a mother!

I once faced Dave Lebrun's A/SA Camaro, when I was driving a Y/SA Dodge Aries, at an NHRA points meet. The indexes were 11-something to my 18.20.

Some time later, in one of my street cars, I beat a 25-second diesel tractor during an Englishtown gamblers race. The round before, a 9-second street roadster crashed trying to chase him down.

I've run Peter Wille in my ramptruck, 14.65 dial against his 8.90. Was wild watching his big wheelstand in my mirrors at half track but kind of hard to judge the finish line.

That was nothing compared to Anne vs the Pro Mod. She has a stock 80's VW Fox dialed in the 19's at under 70 mph and the 65 Chevelle from Montana was high 6's and 200 mph. Surprisingly it didn't spin her out as it flew past.

Not my biggest split, but Just this past Saturday I had a Top Sportsman car.
His 7.94 to my 12.74, on the tree I was .021 to his .016 . I was dialed hard and the car was going to run dead on out the back. He didn't think he could get there and lifted a little early, I scrubbed .02 and 3.5mph, took a .017 stripe, He crossed at 161, I at 101.

Luck? Skill? Who knows, I'll take it !

Win Light for me :eek:
