i think its called interstate racing by most people..but some people dont consider that racing.
from a stop i know i'll lose to a modded vr4 b/c of the awd advantage.
i know i can beat a stock vr4 or a lighty modded one from a roll.
that is just from my experience.
next time i run into another one..i'll make sure i bring a video camcorder to show u guys.

95% of your 1/4 mile time is decided in the first 1/8 mile. What exactly makes a 1/4 mile track the "big boys" track? The 1 extra shift?

Personally I like running 1/4 mile b/c that extra distance is where my car pulls the hardest.......however I would have to agree that the large majority of elements that factor into a 1/4 mile time such as 60 ft. etc. are ALL decided within the first 1/8 mile.
