Default Time Slip comparison

I don't know, nothing too impressive but very interesting I thought. I haven't been too the track as much as most of you, but the last 10 runs I put in excel and to compare the break outs. I personally like this cuz you can tell just how important the 60' is. What's also interesting, the best and worst times aren't a mix of other slips, they are pretty much the best and worst slips. Maybe cuz I don't have alot of slips, but very interesting nevertheless. (don't beat me up on the reaction...me a novice at the strip)

i would do that if i knew which codes to put into the program...its crazy that your best 60' is 2/10 better than your avg. figure out what you did on that best 60' and keep it up for the R/T go on the last yellow light.

yeh, that whole yellow thing thing...I try to go on the last. It seems like I nailed it and then I get my slip and I am like .

No need for code...enter all your time slips and send me the file. I'll do it for ya. It's actually easy, the autosum button ....

See the drop down arrow next to it? Just click a cell where you want your answer to be at and click the drop down arrow and choose "min" and for the best times highlight all the cells you want it to pick from. Keep in mind the minimum cells for time are the best but the worst for MPH. That drop donw arrow has "max" as well.

have you tried going as soon as the 2nd yellow light turns off? that might be the trick for you.

It also depend on how deep you stage. If you barely let the second light go on than you can leave earlier. If you go up a couple of inches after the second light goes on than you have a chance of red lighting it if you leave on the last yellow.

yeah, being a newbie for track stuff, messing with the launch r/t isn't a big deal to me since I'll never do anything besides test and tune. You know since the clock doesn't start until I break the line anyway.
