Default 112-117

112-117 is fast for any street driven car. The trap speed is an average of the last 60 ft. of the 1320'. The actual speed at the 1320' is actually a little higher than the trap speed on the time slip.

At one time in the past, they averaged the speed from 30' before the 1320' to 30' after the 1320'. That just made folks keep their foot in it after the finish line to improve the trap speed. That's why we have it the way it is now.
