close race also

close race also

Indeed. The MOV was less than 1/1000th of a second. Trap speed was separated by only .05 mph and the 1000' times were identical to the 1,000th of a second. You probably couldn't have driven a 10-penny nail between the two cars at the stripe.

That woman is as dedicated as any racer out there; good on her. She had it coming.

Michalek Brothers Racing is giving her a great car and Angelle is doing an outstanding job in it. Congratulations to all !

People thought she was washed out on the bikes. Antron talks her into A/FD and now look,,,,,

 

[mick]

so check this out ...... (as carl also referred to)
coughlin: .059 r.t. @ 5.307 (.003 advantage to mike)
sampey: .062 r.t. @ 5.304 (.003 advantage to angelle)
timers to 4th digit to determine winner: MOV .0005 seconds....wow!
that is about as close as it gets.
congrats to angelle on her first TAD win.

Big congrats and well earned. Her driving as of late has been good, consistently good lights and a solid race car. May help heal the wound of being shut off in the Indy final.

It was so awesome to see her win! So proud of her! Probably my second favorite female Pro driver ever. Was really hoping she would be crying in the interview with Alan because she shows her true emotion, but maybe the interview with Amanda Busick on FS. She ;looked liked she had the same fire she had in her championship years! Was supposed to be there in person to see it, in which case you would have heard my scream all the way to the Shady Maple! Due to unforeseen circumstances, had to leave after Friday, but still great to see on Dot-TV!

Angelle gets beat up for her reaction times. Her reaction times from last seven rounds in the last two events.
.050 Indy round 1
.047 Indy round 2
.058 Indy round 3
.044 maple round 1
.033 maple round 2
.088 maple round 3 (Kundratic rolled the beams staging)
.062 Maple final round

She drove her ass off the last two events. Congrats on the win!

 

[Leebone]

Please put her in Top Fuel next year. There is nothing Angelle can't do.

As far as technical ability goes, riding a PSM has to have a best by date…. probably in your fifties. I couldn’t imagine Force or the Greek on bikes in their seventies, or beyond…

Did I someone say shady Maple?

Angelle 0.011 and 0.023 today.

Angelle 0.011 and 0.023 today.

Those lights are getting too close to her old habit of being the "Red Light Bandit". I'd prefer to see her back off a bit from cutting it so close. They have her car running real good. She doesn't need to throw away rounds by red-lighting. Cut a real good .040 or .050 light and let the car do the rest. TAD isn't Pro Stock. The races usually aren't that close (recent Indy Final being a rare exception).

the .011 light gave her a holeshot win, 5.23 to 5.25

Yes, that's great. Once in a while, you get away with one. I still say too close for comfort.

Old habits die hard. Angelle goes red in the Semi's, giving the win to an up-in-smoke Nataas. Angelle would have won that one and gone to another Final, no matter how late she was on the tree.

 

[LasVegas87]

Yes certainly a bummer to see and you called it.

However Julie can knock down a tree and also ran in the teens. So Angelle couldn't back down too much.

Hopefully it does not result in another mental block for her going forward.
