I remember one now. Standing in NAPA when one of the sales guys started telling me about his fast elcamino. He had went to the drags and he ran a 16.20 BUT he was asleep at the light. It took him a few seconds to realize the lights had dropped. His reaction time was almost 3 seconds. So he had a 13 second ride... You could see his heart break as I informed him he coulda sat there for a week and his car still woulda posted the 16.20 since the clock doesn't start till you actually move.
