I don’t get it. Here are the results from the RARA website. Looks
like 1.99 seconds to me. Do they have it wrong?

"Less than 5 feet? C'mon Rick, I was there.
Your plane was a close second, but according to the official results there was
1.99 seconds between 1st and 2nd place. At 323 MPH
that's over 900 ft. Close at those speeds, but not 5 feet."
I was at that race too- Rick's correct- it was
about 5 feet. As his and Darryl's planes flew by the finish line, there
was no
space between the tail of Darryl's and the nose of Rick's. I don't know
what race or heat you're referring to, but Rick's talking about the Gold race
in 2003. The gap between first and second in that race was a very
small fraction of one second, not 1.99.
