He could easily break into 8s. Horrible reaction time. It takes like a second for him to get moving after the light turns green.

I agree, the light turns green and he reacts after an eon.

actually the time doesn't start until you trip the light, so you can sit there all you want, and the time won't start until you move.

Reaction time is only when you're racing someone next to ya.

Do you even know how the timer works?
What does reaction time have anything to do with ET?

oh wow.

reaction time is in no way a factor of your ET. he could have waited 10 minutes after the light went green and it still would have been a 9.1.

Then you've never been to a drag race. The ET clock doesn't start running until you break the second beam.

That has to be one insane ride, that's superbike killing acceleration from a dig in a full size car.

So the next question is - if the Gallardo is that fast, then what is the twin turbo LP640 going to run?
