I think we should have different "starting lines" for N/A, F/I on pump gas, and F/I on E85/race gas.


... and since the GTR's are 4 wheel drive cars, they get to run on the grass alongside the strip. Ok, j/k on this last part.

I'm going to lose no matter what, might as well take it like a man

However, if my lowly N/A track car beats a hot air blowing VQ in a straight line, I forsee many beers in celebration. Last time I ran the 1320 I trapped like a 107 mph. But that was a full interior ago, plus some other goodies along the way.

Ok, I have taken your spot as the slowest Z there. My best trap was 102 in the 1/4. Registered for fun.

j/k I'll break my 5AT with that mid range torque. I'll keep it at 20 psi or below.

the grass actually may be smoother than that right lane of the strip - lol.

we need to remember to bring some red cones to mark the last couple hunded feet of braking zone. Ryan and I will need an extra hundred feet of grass to slow down from +140

another benefit of the grass is we will not have to worry about the plane landing on top of us like last year
