Default Biggest handicap start you've seen/been a part of

Just curious how many slow/fast S/SS (or bracket racers) have had a huge handicap difference. I might have one of the best stories.

From Quaker City Raceway, in an all-run Wednesday night bracket race.

‎10:38 pm 23/JUN/2004 quarterfinals
Me, HF/SA Sunbird My opponent, Super Pro dragster
Left Right
car # 18 #323
Dial 18.24 8.35
R/T .021 .047
60' 2.486 1.200
330' 7.393 3.444
660' 11.499 5.331
MPH 59.52 129.69
1000' 15.001 6.923
1/4 18.229 WIN>> 8.371
MPH 70.53 159.59

Left 1ST .0587
Right MOV .0327

On the brakes, lost, took the stripe too much. Fun race though. 89 mph difference against a black dragster at night. I'm lucky I didn't take double that much stripe. LOL!

Any other good stories like this?
