    Video of SSKA Heads Up Race at Vegas Final Divisional

    My boy took several bumps because his lights were .030 about. He wanted an 00 or 01. I told him that helped his reaction time BUT hurt his ET exactly as much so he did not get to the finish any sooner but exactly the same either way. Also, he gambled on Red Lighting more by going in deeper...
