Not GPS and people starting way behind the line I think is one of the reasons

Sounds blatently fucked up timing to me, all we get is excuses why FWD fords cant get good quarters (poor grip and not being able to put the power down) yet you all accept your average RST will do 60 in 4.6 seconds, make your mind up
