So is every "wap" of the throttle down track about a hundredth or so off your ET??
Thats really hard to figure... I can let off the throttle and if the rpm is below the stall point of the conv it wont hardly slow down... I have to hit the brakes to make an noticeable change ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif)

That's kinda what I thought...I was just curious. I'm not a throttle jockey, I just dial it tight and cut a light...just interesting to see how some folks do it.

and just because they are sawing like that doent mean that they are holding a bunch..they could only be holding .01 or .02... if they are treeing the other guy... its just making the race tight. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0UH88Kgx0o just like this i was .008 to him and wasnt getting there and i still blapped it. and the extra blap is just me i always do it when i win.

SHOCKING NEW DEVELOPMENT!!!!!!!! the driver who runs a tighter package, WILL WIN! it doesn't matter how it's done. shocking, yes. and if i'm gonna take the stripe, i dump and take it by as little as possible. my reign as "breakout king", has ended. nothing worse than being beaten by your own car. ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/Twocents.gif)
for what is the good life if not doing things thoughtfully?
