Did I see that correctly?! He had a 1.7 sec reaction time? That would mean that car should run sub 8's!

Reaction time doesn't affect ET. The timer doesn't start until he crosses the starting line.

Just, isn't it in bracket that the time affects ET because of the delay between the 2 racers ?

Here, even if it doesnt affect he doesn't launch very fast ....

I'm not sure. I believe it's only with a pro-tree that RT and ET are connected. That wasn't a pro-tree he was launching on.



I just watched the video again. He's pushing 3.8 bar. That's 55 psi of boost
