Terry, I honestly would not have guessed it would be that much difference.
A half second (as you know) is a hell of alot of difference! I would still
like to see a "real life" 1/4 mile pass from the same two vehicle, I know
the G-techs are pretty good, but there has to be some margin for error
there??
My guess would be more like a tenth or two, but not half a second!

Well, I can't argue with numbers like that. Matt, I concede the
debate, the above numbers back up what you've been saying. I'm man
enough to admit when I'm wrong. :-)
