Hey fella’s, I have a question on a time I ran at the track last week. I ran a 12.7 at 117. I see people on the board that run anywhere from 12.2’s – 12.5’s with much lower MPH’s. My question is why is this? This question is probably a no-brainer to some of you, but I couldn’t figure this out. Any info would be great

What was your 60' when you ran those times?

What were you 60' times? getting good traction and a low 60' time will bring your ET's down, but the trap speed isn't very dependent on getting a good luanch and traction.

my 60' time was 2.202 - I realized after my runs on my way home I had run on full tire pressure. If I would have dropped my tire pressure do you think I would have lowered my ET's?

Every 0.1 off the 60' time is equal to about 0.15-0.2 off your ET, so if you could get the 60' down to say a 2.0 you should run between a 12.3 and a 12.4.
