It looks to me like it’s possible that either the nose or something else was hanging down in the front of McGaha’s car and tripping the beam. Watch when he rolls in to pre stage, the pre stage light flickers then too. When he rolled in to pre stage, the nose or whatever it was was tripping the beam, then when he kept rolling in and the pre stage beam stayed lit up that was actually the tire blocking the beam like it should. Then when he tried to fully stage, the nose caught the stage beam which was the flicker, and he probably didn’t roll in far enough to block the beam with the tire.
Just a guess/maybe what happened.

I operate the timing system at WHP - run the Team Summit Bracket Series here, and currently operating the clocks during testing watching his son Mason make some hits.

For the most part - what happens at Monday Nationals - stays at Monday Nationals - at least on our end. That said, driving a Pro Stock car is quite difficult. He's a very talented young man, and will get more comfortable with each lap.
Pretty sure it is completely safe to say he ran better that a 6.63 and maybe even high 50's. I believe he is also supposed to drive a 2nd car along side Dad at selected races. I heard Chris say that when he hangs up the helmet, he is taking the seat.
