dont base your decision on what his car is capable of, but base it on if he consistent enough to make it down the track and cut a good light..How many time has he really race anyone down the track??? I have gone down about 10 different tracks and way over 100 times and have many races under my belt...Im not saying that my car is faster, but you dont know until you line them up huh??

so, sure ill take some sidebets...ill be in austin this saturday..let me know how much you want to bet..

I have about 20 passes under my belt. Most of them are probably a little wilder then Duy's. Its easier to spin on a 18" radial (with stiff sidewalls) thats got 20psi on them, then on a 28x10.5W (soft sidewalls) with 11psi in them. I have aborted many passes for safety reasons. My lights are dead on, but getting the car to not spin is a big thing. I will be racing Duy on less nitrous (300) then normal just to give it a good race.. I'd hate to buy him beer because I spin! Then again I will be stealing them out of his cooler anyway!

Some time a less powerful motor can help keep it under control instead of having to abort a run etc... I am sure you can see that. I am sure that ist will be a fun event.
