pciley,

Not trying to be offensive here... those are GREAT times...

But dude... you gotta quit sleeping at the tree man...

.500 -> perfect
.600 -> acceptable
.700 -> practice
.800 -> ummm... yeah
.900+ -> pack it up and go home

again... I am not trying to be offensive here... and I mean nothing against you...

But you need to work on it... considering the size (mind you I have only test driven a titan, and have never ran a "sissy stick" through the traps) you may want to hit the accerator as the last yellow is lighting up...

and which brake are you using when you are power braking?

not that the parking brake is going to work well for this situation, seeing as how it is a push to enguage and push to release (atleast in the one I test drove)...

the more I think about it... the harder it is to launch this truck... not like my focus... or other cars that I have taken down the strip... they all had the lever type of e-brake.. which allows me to hand control the brake at the light and launch harder ...

but try launching a bit sooner, if you see green you are allready too late ...
fyi my persional best light is a .507 and my average light is in the mid .5's...

hell I may come down there and run with you next time... just for the hell of it!!!...
tho it would be me in my focus

peace!
