I don't know about that Michael, because two months ago I had the pleasure of doing something in a drag race that I don't get to do often....leave last (by nearly a full second). Needless to say I carded a .005rt., and my opponent was (.100 +) sleepy (perhaps to be clean and green?), thus allowing me to reel him in by the 1000ft mark, on my way to one of my easiest rnd wins since the last import car I raced!!! I wasn't pressured, but it was different....fun but different!
