I was wondering if one of you admins could set up a sticky topic for who of the members here have the fastest tib here.

To make it fair have a turbo & NA class

something for all us to aim for.
state 1/4mile time at what speed etc.. (of course you will need proof.)
HP & torque.

i don't know just a thought. it will be good to see what direction we are heading.

A "racing" section would not be bad... not just for dragging though. We have people here who Auto-x, go out on the track, and even the occasional rallier..

Yeah thats sort of off point tho.
with the quarter everyone has the same variables no matter where in the world you are. (xcept altitude)
can easily run your rally car over 400m

i just think it would give members something to aim for and keep pushing us enthusists further. (compare setups etc)
I know of many people on the forums here etc that now have turbo's + fast NA cars..

I don't know...
+ i think id'l be kool to know if you could make the list.

Yeah, there is a lot more to this whole thing than the quarter mile, however, it is the only event that we would be able to compare times with other members. There is no other event with a constant variable across the board like drag racing.
