Don, It seems like only yesterday, but it was 1989. Yikes! Glad you like your new car.

It wasn't too long ago, 1990 or 91 that we were bracket racing with a .4 pro tree. Don, If you were bracket racing back then, you know "to keep the pencil sharp" you will remember that everyone wanted to leave 1st and or have the slowest car because it was darn near impossible to leave second and have a chance at cutting a good or for that matter consistent light.

So not sure why you are asking for this... we already did this...........

Maybe you should work on slowing down the cars reaction:
1. More front travel
2. shock settings
3. 4 link settings
4. bracket race for practice

You get the idea.......figure out your stuff, quit asking for a keyboard solution....Please!

Refer to #4 often!!!!!!

I think I know where you might be going with this thread,so I will help you out.

Don,

When the tree comes down,how much time between each bulb?

In other words,do you agree that the bulbs are spaced .500 apart?

It's good to see that alot of thought went into this before posting. On that note, I was thinking how a cheeseburger and a cold beer should cost about $2.50 and that would include a pickle and some chips. Oh well I guess neither one of us is in touch with reality. I know who you are Daryl and you are in touch with reality.

Don,this is my last post on this subject.Answer this question.
Show me anywhere in any sport where there is a "level playing field".The only place bull**** like that is considered is the democratic far left playbook.And after 60 years and who knows how many $billions there are still haves and have nots.That can be transposed to just about any facet of our lives.When are the Chicago Cubs going to win a World Series?Or the Cleveland Browns a Super Bowl.
It's NHRAs main job to provide a safe environment to race,not baby sit malcontents and whiners.
