What Do I Have To Do To Get You Mopar Racers To Show Up!!!

Just a question since I've never drag raced on either a 1/8 or 1/4 mile track. How much influence does reaction time have relative to each track length? In theory, if your car is dialed in to run a particular time (i.e., handicapped), all drag races are simply tests of reaction time. But it seems like the shorter the track, the more reaction time comes into play, and the longer the track, the more the car's HP comes into play.

THE FIRST MOST IMPORTENT THING IS YOUR REACTION TIME, THEN THE 60 FT TIME, IF YOU HAVE BOTH YOU WILL WINN. JUST THINK OF IT LIKE THIS , IF YOU ARE RACING A HEADS UP RACE AND YOU HAVE A REACTION TIME OF .02 AND THE CAR YOU ARE RACING HAS A .202 YOU HAVE HIM BY .20 ON THE LINE THATS 2 TENTHS OF A SEC. VERY HARD TO MAKE UP YOU NEED TO BE GOOD ON LIGHTS. I LOST LAST SAT. NIGHT BECAUSE I WAS SLOW ON LIGHS IN 3RD. ROUND. GOOD LUCK GARY.
