Hot Rod VS Tony S

[Stretch]

Did anyone one else think Hot Rod was ahead of Tony at the finish line when they showed the finish line replay????

Where was Hot Rod's laundry at about 990'?

Missed by THAT much... a bit too quick on the lever

Those video shots have always been *really* deceptive. I thought so at first, but if you follow the finish line it looks like Tony was just a little bit ahead.

It almost looked like Englishtown 87 all over again!!!

That was a great race. Of course, I wanted Rod to win.
He did his job on the line. But, Shoe just edged him out.
The margin of victory looked to be about an inch or two.
Rod's 'chute hadn't fully hit yet, so I doubt that affected the race. Rod ran 311.20 mph.
