When one vehicle dials 10.50, and the other dials 10.60, what are these advantages and disadvantages?

What are these advantages and disadvantages when one car dials 12.95, and the other dials 13.15?

Not much difference in your example.

However, if the dial ins are over 1 second apart :
Slower car drivers have to learn the art of judging "rate of gain" while looking over their shoulder.
Slower drivers are ALWAYS closer to the finish line ....until the last few inches.
Faster car drivers don't have to look over their shoulder and have a real good view of the slower car's front wheels.

Hell, I could go on and on, but what's the point...........

Question Re: perfect reason to get tree fixed

Don't we have enough problems right now!!!!! Why don't we get the current problems under control (whitch will never happen) this doesn't seem to be that big a deal. If we or them would quit F--$king up the rules all the time may be we could get some of the major problems under control or evan fixed..

I am ALWAYS the slower car. I'm not a classracer, just a bracket racer but still...Don't get me wrong if they changed the rule, it would help me out a lot, but why change. If I don't go red, I have nothing to worry about right? Red lights happen, its part of drag racing. I like the ruling as it is.

I'm more worried about gas being 3.37/gallon at my house right now then whether or not they're gonna change the rule or me being red tomrrow. Got more stuff to worry about. Like Mr. Hulquist said, practice more, complain less.

Chad Rhodes, you owe me a new computer chair. I literally fell over from laughing at your post so hard.

Let's see if lady luck is on my side today when I go bracket racing. Hopefully, I don't go red, but who knows.

Well unless it's a Cobra Jet your in for a real head ache. if it's an older combo you could be 4 to 8 tens behind, if it's a drag pak you will be alittle closer but not close enough the scare them.

Leave it the way it is. You dont have to be fast to win in a bracket race .
You have to be lucky first, and good second.
