Wasn't there a separate thread on 1/4 vs 1/8 mile racing? Where we could all rant on why 1/4 mile or 1/8 mile is better? So we don't veer this thread off course for the OP!
(Of course we all know drag racing originated as and was defined as 1/4 mile hence why it is of course the ideal! Lol!!)
Carry on....
