I want to ask a serious question and don't want anyone to take it like I'm making light of the effort or experience: What is it about Drag Week that makes it so difficult, and why is the attrition rate so high? Thanks - Brad
For example. I think it was Tx motorplex to Shreveport. It was maybe 200 mile drive. You think ok this is going to be an easy one. 8 hours of driving in 35 mph zones, traffic, the sun beating on you, fumes, you drank 7 Gatorades and didnt take a leak once. One of the great things about running a g3 hemi now is I dont think all the rockers are lashed at .075.
Wisconsin. Badum, badum, badum, badum, badum, badum, badum...love those concrete roads.
Indian, welcome to whateverville pop 234. Corn. Corn. Corn. Hey look, its corn. How many more miles of this?
