Make scense to anyone?



No, simply because your trap speeds are NOT taken with a radar gun. The track timing system records the time it takes you to travel the last 60 feet of the 1/8 and the 1/4 mile (or anywhere they give trap speeds on the track), then compute your average speed over those 60 feet by doing the following equation:

VELOCITY = DISTANCE / TIME

Obviously the timing system at that track is screwed up, because those speeds are no way realistic.
