I agree with that Barry. Guess I called it drag or holding back, but I believe convertors slip somewhat all the way down track. Once the stick launches, and I assume there is some tire spin there, it's a direct connection. My opinion, correct me if I am wrong. This is mainly why I think a stick could be quicker, provided the driver is deadly. Seems like the lower hp cars would or could widen the gap. This is a very interesting topic. Jesse
