Ford 272 C.I. runs low 11's. Why do Mopar guys need 408's?

This in a nutshell is why I hate bracket racing most of the time. A guy can jump in a 17 second minivan and clean house on a whole field of fast, well built cars and all he had to do was cut an ok light and leave it in drive. For me winning that way is like being proud of a getting a trophy for participation.

No participation trophies. Sorry, you cannot "buy" your way out of bracket racing. Fast or slow, same challenges... reaction time and a car that is consistent, and knowing what to dial. Car and driver working together. Period. If you can't cut a light, or drive, and your car isnt' consistent, then you and all your money machines get put on the trailer. :) And if you have a car that cuts a 1.5 60 ft time and you can't cut a better light than the guy cutting a 2.6 60 ft in his mini van, that's on you ...lol

P.S. - the "you" isnt' literally you, lead69 , just generally speaking :D
