Topic: High Plains Drifter - Photos of closest gap in Lemons??

Hello all -

What a heck of a weekend! Fantastic people, great weather, and the car ran all weekend!
Did anyone get photos of the finish of the race? Our team had all fingers crossed and didn't get a good photo of Sew So Fast going across the finish line 0.035 seconds before Orange Crush'd.  If anyone has a photo please let us know.

Hats off!

0.035 seconds.... You know, we always joke about how transponder placement doesn't matter when we're putting ours on, but in this case, it literally might. At 60mph you go 3.08ft in .035seconds. At 80mph it's 4.1ft. That's a close distance if you have transponders in wildly different mounting locations on the cars. Though I assume 95% of teams mount at the front of the car.

congrats on the close finish, looking forward to the pictures.

Hahah - Thank you!  Yeah we went through the math as well... it rally opened our eyes to every move getting our team belted in, how the closing of gas cap could have fumbled, etc.  can drive yourself a bit crazy thinking about it!
