14.41, pretty fast for a contour SVT, I think he was tickling it with the
juice. Every car I ran against that night was pretty fast, the only one that
beat me was because i had a 1.515 sec reaction to her.709, funny because I
was running .7's all night. I actually ran a tenth faster than her Trans Am
(13.95-vs-14.04)
