The driver is a HUGE factor in a quarter mile run.

hence this very discussion and other good ways to compare similar cars
with various mods.

IMO Marty, driver is a factory in ANY TYPE of race or event, whether is be 1/4 mile or running a full mile. Think about it, you have to shift and get off the line as fast doing a mile run , or else it will hinder your outcome no? I mean yes drag racing takes much more focus and skill, but driver is always a factor!

Drag racing is well established and has 50 years of rule revision and refinement to make it fair and fun. There are lots of facilities in the US and around the world where anyone can have a go.

It's a way to get some comparison with others in a very convenient manner. And it's really really hard to do well! Hence the challenge and those who rise to the challenge.

Rob, Im on your/anyone's P Team, reality is that there's more supras running 9s than all Porsches running 10s ask Onlove he can tell us the honest true, theres Supras running 8s on Drag Radials !

I really think that if it is all P cars we will apprecciate it a bit more, only my 0.02 do

Yeah, I know several of these dudes from Ross to Ben and all of them have ran some rediculous times.. But you know what, I know there cars!!!! I know some of them are using TH 400, 3.4 to 3.5 kits and some are spraying 300 shots and more... but I like these guys because they are pushing the envelope and a couple of these guys have been helping me as well!! Come down and see .. please
