How do you stage with the rear tires????Unless of course you don't care about the red-light.....

Hate to be the spoiler ****, but something defenitely tripped the lights...It takes ALOT of power to move 4700-4800lbs 60ft in 1.4 secs....The numbers that you are making just don't support that.....

I have seen several people stage with the rear tires....or at least attempt to....most times the guy working the tree will catch it. The times I have seen people get away with it is when they burnout through the lights, then back up but not all the way to the front tires and the tree is set on automatic, (meaning, no one is actually at the tree).

No offense

There is no way possible you ran a 1.41 60ft with your mods.

Something got screwed up.

Ive been drag racing long enough to tell you it in fact didnt happen.I believe you but the slip is DEAD wrong.

Amazing how people on here can actually beleive it happened.Those who have ANY racing experience should know better...............No flame intended.

Hey ****,

That sure is a neat time slip... I would keep it... You will NEVER get another one... unless the lights mal****ion and who knows you may just get a better time slip.

The HALO club has some of the most active drag racers that I have ever seen. Funny thing we have some bogus or erroneous timeslips as well... and we know why... we have seen things trip different beams at the track before.

We have several trucks that run between 11.7 and 12.3 in the club, and NOONE has EVER put up a short time (legit) like yours. We do have a member that ran over 200+ mph in the quarter, in his gen 2 lightning.... you might have heard of him 1badtk.. now either he has the worlds fastest gen2 or the timing system had some sort of an issue... Ill leave you with that... what do you think?

This whole thread is worthless..........why even post results of a bogus timeslip.

I have trapped at 117 before.............but I never came here and said "Hey guys check this out I trapped at 117 with a chip, filter, pulley" :o
