Not as much of "a thing" since Drag Week took off, but I used the chuckle when people would see my car on the track and then in the pits later. Had more than one person ask where my trailer was, until it dawned on them that I actually drove it in (unless I had to point it out to them).

The other comparison is when even you think the other guy's car is faster. A friend of mine w/ an Olds 442 took me for a ride and I thought it would kick my Super Bee's a$$. Then we went to the track together and he was a few tenths slower, which kinda shocked both of us.
