Many guys have been known to run their tow vehicles when the race car breaks mid eliminations. Ya just gotta dial the time and run that time! LOL

It is a blast. In the 2nd video, I was .021 on reaction time to his .002, I ran 7.156 on 7.15 dial. He was .01 over his dial and effectively beat me on tree. I was .003 against a dragster 1st round that night.

I get a pretty good head start based off my dial vs his. That is not the fastest car I have run against, I think quickest one was 4.45 to my 7.20. Is a great way to race, not super high investment and you make many friends at track. Having the RV to cool off in is even better. Wife and dog usually go with me.

I am missing some racing now due to caring/setting up sister in law after her husband passed suddenly in Carolinas.

It is a lot of fun! My problem is the nearest track is 125 miles away AND the Mrs. doesn't like to go with me very often. (I don't have any buddies into racing) A few yrs back I made it all the way to the finals in the Mopar class. Got put out by a local guy that is real good.
