Congrats Tex, but I kinda feel a little sorry for a guy going 12,50 with a 1, on a 12.50 and losing. Been there, done that.

Looks like the difference was in the RT's.....
 
Yea, .005 mov. I had a formula in my old phone ( from DVW) to calculate distance, but it's not in this phone. I'll bet less than a foot.
 
I once fluked a win by 0.001 over one of the best drag-racers of recent times a few years ago. I was heading for break-out, but my fuel pump pushrod wore out and starved my carbs.....slowed me down enough. Slowed enough to eyeball each other crossing the line....not a happy man for a while. :D
 
Way to go Tex! Congrats.
 
Congrats, take those wins any way you can.
