We got 3 runs in, I ran 12.7, 12.8, 12.7 at the same mph each time. He was all over the place with traction issues and whatnot, so as in road racing, a consistent car will always be faster that a high power car.

The Challeneger would have won the drag race if he had better traction. The camaro driver said the Challenger was spining his tyres the first 20'.
