Your crazy, 60ft has to count in your times. Why isn't everyone running better times? Take out 1.35 to 1.80 seconds on every run and everyone would be running 8's thats ridiculous.


60 ft. does not count on the Pro Tree, only Sportsman...

It depends. At higher elevations they run less than that in order to compensate for the thinner air. That way the ET's are comparable.

Jesus!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please stop! Shane I respect all of your opinions but you are wrong. Listen to what you are saying. On the faster bikes the first 60ft do not count. Why would it count on the slower bikes. So out in California or Utah they remove the 60ft times to make it competitive and/or shorten the track. All tracks run a legit 1/4 and include the 60ft times I assure you. The only class running 1000ft is Top Fuel in NHRA thats it.

This whole thread is so damn ridiculous, from the title on...

No offense to the guy who started it, but I thought it had to be a joke when I opened it...maybe it was??
