Rumble coming to the lanes
LM EFi - Strange 1st round as there were a few that didnt make the call!
Edgar was red and 2nd place advanced - with this being a 2x points event I am not sure where it shakes out right now, however there are guys left that can help Edgar I believe, depends on the ladder for the next round.

I went out in the third round. I was .020 to his .005. I ran a 11.449 on a 11.50 index to his 9.459 he is in the 9.50 index. MOV was .005. I was on the brakes realing him in and I figureed I would let him cross first. He was moving thinking he is not going to scrub. He was 145.39 at the stripe. I was 120.02mph. I did lock up the championship.

Sorry to hear Rob, but CONGRATS on the Championship 
Just out of curiosity, if he was .041 under and you were .051 under, wouldn't the MOV be .010? Or did you mean 1st to the stripe by .005 as that would make sense since he had .015 on you at the tree. Guess it doesn't matter either way.

I know this is a moot point but I am curious as to if it is actually listed on the ticket as MOV of .005. IMO, that is wrong. In a break-out situation, reaction time has nothing to do with it. The ONLY reason why Rob lost was because he broke out by more, it had nothing to do with R/T's. If you think of what margin of victory actually means, you will understand what I am saying. Like I said, 1st to stripe should be .005 and MOV should be .010. Ok, sorry for going off topic.

Interestingly enough, every one in our crew (Rob, Steve C, Doug K, Bob T, Paul Jr and myself) that was competing in LSx Rumble won 1st round. 
Of course round 2 wasn't quite as pretty for some of us LOL
but Rob and Paul stayed in it ran some great races.
A BIG congrats again to Rob for taking the title in it's initial/inaugural year.
