most recently when I dragged I had a trap speed of only 92 mph or so. I looked down at my spedometer as I crossed the finish line on the second run (the first run, I noticed the same low trap speed) and it looked like I was doing about 102 mph; time slip still said about 92 or 93 mph (don't remember exactly) A lot of other people that day noticed the same inconsistency. One guy said he hit 100 mph before 4th gear out there (twin turbo Z) but his time slip said 99 mph. Weird. Many people that day were complaining about timing errors. So much for the greater accuracy of the strip, huh!? ;o) I think my highest trap speed has been 96 mph (@ MIR)
