    But in good spirits Crawford did help Topspeed by lending their Air/Oil seperator.

    At that level...a half a second is a lot of time to make up.

    yeah...0.500 seconds is not 'much' but on a RACE TRACK at that level, its a shit ton.

    METRIC shit ton.

    We're talking 1/3rd to 1/2 of a decent straightaway here. On camera thats a lot.

    My hats off to those guys, I know what its like to travel across country only to have problems. Also I wanted to point out that Crawford went out of the way to help get us on track.

    I think they catch alot of flack but in person the are very nice guys.

    i have heard this from my great mentor in racing.

    "doesnt matter if you win by a inch or a mile winning is winning."
    he also said...
    "i live my life 1/4 mile at a time"

    Ok Diesel.


    I wasn't trying to 'start' anything....I just thought it was hilarious that they were trying to justify everything like they always do and that they said that the competitor 'barely' beat them.
