I've been drag racing since 1987, in all that time I've had alot of great lights, I've also had about 3 .500 REDs Turns out the computer rounds off the numbers like .49999 becomes .500 but red.

Can't cut it much closer

My best R/T is a 0.562.

Now what makes this so special is I pulled this on my third drag race I ever did. (today). My buddy said hes been racing for 3 years and his best was a bit over 0.6, AND I drive a Manual, so I seem blessed with reaction.
