Re: What is your worst reaction time
Ron, If your WORST light is a .036 remind me never to line up next to you!

Re: What is your worst reaction time
Ed, I do not need to move the decimal. My natural reaction time is .022 If you take roll out and remove it and run on a pro tree set at .000 it will show what your true reaction time is. My worst was an .036 So there you go.
Now as far as RT at the races when it is posted on a time slip, I'd just rather not talk about it. Put it this way, I know exactly when to leave, I just don't do it all the time. Ron Ortiz U/SA Reactions like a cow

Re: What is your worst reaction time
My worst reaction time was at Gate Way International in the final round when my partner/crew chief came up to me, opened the door and said..."Whatever you do, don't red light" then slammed the door shut. Need I say more? lol I would have rather taken runner up with a red than runner up watching the grass grow "green".

Re: What is your worst reaction time
I can't recall my worst..guessing 9 something. I never kept those timeslips, throwing them out the window.
However a better story was years ago before the LED trees I was bracket racing an old Merc land barge and couldn't cut anything better than a .670. After 3 tries at the 3rd amber I got frustrated and left on the 2nd amber purposely trying to go red. To my amazement it went green, nailing a .503 on a 5 tenths tree!!! Was really ticked I couldn't repeat during eliminations, going red instead.
