Anybody can write a check. The bragging rights come from making your own rod. It is obvious that, in the near future, factory electric cars will win most drag races. Hard to match computer traction control AWD. Just watch a modern linear-motor roller coaster take off at an amusement park. Only cure is to write them out of the rule book. I am a fan of the 1980's Mopar turbo-van stomping the Z28 on youtube. The slant is a similar underdog. Grocery run in the morning, smack-down at the track that afternoon.
