Re: I was slow but I took out some "Uncle Ben's" Boys

If you will take a look at your 60' time on your 16.63 run, you'll see that it's pretty good. But, on all of your other runs, you had a sorry 60' time. This either means that you were just barely easing on the throttle as you left... or it means that you barried it to the floor and burn the tires down when leaving the line. Most likely, you were spinning your tires.

Improve your driving skills and you will run consistant high 16's.
