I have noticed that anytime I go to a track event that is not a "Big" event, that no one is good at reaction times. I was really shocked at the dsm shootout last year when there were very few good drivers there. Of course this is not including the big names.

My first time to the track I was cutting .600 lights .700's were my bad ones.

Is reaction times just something that people don't focus on anymore.

No offense, but why bother racing a stock commuter car? Are you putting some serious mods into it and this is a baseline run to compare or what?
