Awesome run Markski! I thought that your trap speed would be higher. Shouldn't your car be able to gain at least 35MPH in the second 1/8? That would put you over 150! My car would only hit 98-99 in the 1/8, but would gain 33-35 in the second 1/8 and trap 133-134.

The starting 1/8thspeeds is higher in Mark's run therefore it will take more time to achieve the 116-140mph+ or so than a 100+ to 130+mph. A good comparison would be to check vs. Todd Z.'s run of 140+mph to see how they compare, time vs. distance, vs. speed in the second half.
