The race was from ~45mph - 120mph. Dan made an agreement with me before the race that we would shut down at 120mph. Yes, there is a big difference in peak whp/wtq #'s between his car and my car... however, those are only peak #'s. The powerband, otherwise known as the area under the curve, is also a crucial part of how a car performs.
I'm definitely not bashing on BatlGround's Evo though. If the race continued to 140mph or 160mph, he would have easily pulled another 5 or more cars on me. However, from my driver's point of view, before the smoke clouded my vision, he was about 1.5 ~ 2 cars ahead and in the process of pulling away.
