Not Ranked     
Default I know it's a lost art...

..but if some folks would simply READ Bob's posts (meaning reading for comprehension), you would realize that drag racing and street racing are not "racing" as it is being discussed here. You want to go in a straight line or just boil tires, any lightweight chassis will do (Vegas, Pintos)--even rice rockets.

Racing, as the full term is being used here involves acceleration, braking, handling--the total package.

Frigo--as I responded on the other thread--even streets differ. My streets are the foothills of the Sierra Nevada--not the flat, straight stretches of the mid-west. In the hills, give me a small block anyday. But I digress, if you want to go to Willow Springs, Buttonwillow, etc.--you'd better bring an SB.
