You could have treed him really good and got a half a second or so jump off the line. Or maybe his clutch was slipping alot that day. what did you run?

i ran a 17.2 which equates to a 15.9 at sea level (colorado=no air) anyways my question is not so much how he beat me its how dispite the fact that are reaction times were even and i was ahead to the 1/8th his 60' and 100' show as quicker than mine on the print out that just dosent make sence to me

I was going to say RT. but if the RT is the same then maybe it was just something weird with their system. it wouldnt be the first time a track has been wrong.

The WRX must have had problems or maybe driver off the line it should have jumped out over the camaro with no problem.

it would be much more helpful if you could post either the slip itself or all numbers from the slip
