What is your worst reaction time

Steve Polhill · 08-05-2010, 08:07 PM

This year at Norwalk I was hot on the tree during qualifying. First round had a.023 light not to bad. second round a .032 decent enough. Third round a Brain fart .289. Yes I wrote it correctly.
I Picked a bad time to glance at the oil pressure. Ahhhh Duuuhhhh. And to make things worse I ran 9 thou over my Dial, and a light somewhere in the .060-.070 range would have won me the race. Bahhh oh well we all have our moments.
