Nice runs man! That vett didnt have u by much! You ever try locking the converter in second and let her run out to the limiter when running down the 1/8th?

I haven't, locking second seems like it would be a pretty good smack. Also not sure on the gearing, usually see 115 or more on logs because of the 1 second or so still in it past the 8th beams

O ok I thought you ment you were tapping the limiter as you came across the line. I wouldn't dout the mph would pick up a hair if you did but might not be worth the wear and tare.

The trap speed is found by dividing the last 66 feet by the time it takes...so you are actually going faster at the end than your trap speed. The trap is an average over the last 66 feet.

66 feet? I thought it was 10 feet, atleast in the 1/4. Am I wrong or is it 10 in 1/4 and 66 in 1/8?
