if he was at island on friday night, they were running pro tree anyway, no sense in waiting for the bottom bulb. They run pro tree to help simulate street racing a little better.

95Formula,
Don't worry about reaction time at all, it doesn't affect you're ET one bit. The only thing it will help with is if you're running a car thats close to your time, with a good r/t you may beat him down the track. like if you have a .040 r/t, and he has a .840 r/t, you have an 8 tenths jump on him, so theoretically you could run a 14.7 and beat a 14.0 car to the finish line just by reaction time. Unless you're interested in bracket racing, i wouldnt worry about r/t at all though, just do what you gotta do to get your car down the track.

However, if you are interested in bracket racing, i'd be glad to help ya out
