[QUOTE="UselessPickles, post: 796866, member: 3256"] "JUST" 0.249 seconds (the difference between our best times, not counting reaction time) is actually quite significant in the 1/4 mile. That comes out to about a 53 foot lead. Differences in 1/4 mile results are deceivingly more significant than they appear. For example, Jason's best run was 11.073s @ 124.53s. On my best run, I reached 125mph in just 9.9s, and at 11.073s I was up to 130mph (I was still accelerating past the finish). As for the beginner's handicap, I don't think there was any when comparing our best runs. The 60ft time is an indicator of how well you launch, which is the toughest part of drag racing. Comparing our best runs, the 60ft time was 1.824s vs 1.840s, which indicates that we launched almost exactly the same. [/QUOTE]
