I think my traps were around 87/88 mph if I recall correctly. I'll be over 100mph traps with my new 924 I'm picking up in a few weeks

It's just reaction to green. Once he moves then the timers start.

Thanks for clarifying that.

Oh wow, I must be doing something wrong. How many RPM's are you bringing on the take offs and how are you letting off the clutch? I'm also wondering what a good RPM is for the shifting points.

I was going up to 6000 on 1 and 2, then around 6100 on 3 going into 4th for the finish in 17.8 seconds. That was my first time out to the quarter, so not bad I guess.
