Default New best times.

I'm really happy with tonights results. I attribute it to the line lock. I found that really heating up thr BFGs makes a huge difference. I tried one run without heating and it was back to 8.1.
My numbers: .544rt(.500 light), 1.68-60', 7.59 1/8, 94.43 mph.
The next meet will be in Oct. and maybe I can do a little better if it cools off, but these numbers are where I believe this setup will run. :D
