That mph could have been tripping the beams with the nose, it's definitely possible in those cars.

Ed its hard to tell if you get the stripe with the nose of the bumper because it would have been 129. I am sure you have cut someone loose and picked up 3 mph before, I know I have.

Yeah, but it can be just as big or worse of a problem for them.

Your right. Forgot about that. I'm old. :-) When I first tried bracket racing mine I learned that the hard way. Took twice to figure out what was going on. Ran quicker and faster than I had all day. You quickly learn to blip the throttle to get the nose back up at the stripe. Cross it on the brakes and you have a problem.

For class running wide open i dont think the nose tripped the beams maybe just heavy and soft in the 1st half

That would be a way to try to turn the win light on in a very close heads up.

Or hit the brakes on every run...
