Some people mess up more on the street because of the adrenaline pumping more. Then, some people mess up more at the track because they have the tree and that makes them nervous.
I think the main reason Nemo wins, is because ppl underestimate his car. Power to weight, gearing, launching, is all a huge factor. Nemo knows his car, knows what it can do, and knows how to drive it. Fastest car doesn't always win. And when did Lee's car run a 13.4 when he wasn't on spray? His car runs a 13.8 consistently.
Either way, good luck to both. Be safe.
