Yeah, to each his own… I’m on the other end- handling is decent but would like it if my car could go as well.
Straight line is tough in that since you have so little time to react and with only a few seconds to make a run, a mistake pretty much ruins all your chances.
Granted, this is true anywhere, but I could see how in a race situation there is more time overall, so basically greater chance a guy in front of you screws up and gives you an opportunity to make a move despite your own previous mistake.
It would seem these opportunities are really limited in drag racing.
