God I guess 427 L88 427 ZRI 454 LS6 454 LS7 Don't have no high end torque you got to be kidding and if you want to do a dig to 200mph let's get to it. That cover's all base's driver skills and who's got the biggest lol Just fucking with you it really just boils down what your car is set up for.

Hints why there is like 5 1/8 strips here in GA and 3 1/4, the 1/4 mile tracks cater to 1/8 racing as well.

As for the "i like it better statement" Where I live thats what people do, most have the older v8's that dont really have the power to run a good 1/4 time so dig racing is what they do. But not all the cars here are underpowered and old. There are a couple that have taken their cars well into the 9's and drive them every weekend. One of them being a vette, so he is equipped with the same rear end and irs setup as any other new chevy. I guess my question has been answered, hwy pulls are much less likely to get caught, and you cant break anything.

Mike, Deckers car is fast b/c he is learning how to drive it. Hell he has ran faster than 2j240sx has and with 1/2 the power. He went from running 13' and 14's to running 12's from seat time. Which kinda gets back to my original post. 2jdave can bust Deckers ass all day long on the hwy, but from a dig, my money is on Decker.
