Taken from www.prsportcompact.com
1.1645 = 60 ft
3.0250 = 330 ft
4.5700 = 660 ft
5.9349 = 1000 ft
7.1516 @176.3578 1/4 mile
Apparently, the engine "shut off" around the 1000FT area.

Not a very good 60ft due to a bad launch. The car bogged down a little but once it came on it really did. The 330ft time shows how quick the car recovered from a bad 60ft. The 330ft time is more what you would get with a 1.07 to 1.10 60ft.
From there on to the 1000ft mark all times indicated a very quick run or at least quicker than the norm. Would have been nice to see the 1/8 mph though. The low trap speed/mph at the 1/4 could have been from the little bog off the line or he could have lifted or shut it down early. Sometimes a bog of the line results in that because you basically have less track/time to travel down the track once the motor recovers from the bog or it could have been what Ito suggested.
Anyways it was a record setting time from a not to pefect run. We can only imagine if it was a text book run.
Congrats again to the entire Sporty crew!

I've heard a few 1/4 mile run explanations (from different cars), never heard one as informative as yours

Sporty new mph record
http://www.agracingvideo.com/videos/.../sporty189.wmv
The above video shows the huge bog from the hole. Nice MPH to back up his earlier run though.
Can't wait to see this thing on a perfect run.
