So let's start it out. 184 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:36,280 Good topic idea to throw at you guys putting a spin on all this 185 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:41,400 talk of expenses lately, diving into the idea of dragsters being 186 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:47,360 100 to $150,000 nowadays, which is true. 187 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:51,200 So yeah, I got now. Now Phil's over here texting me 188 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:52,600 right now. Anyway. 189 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,760 Yeah man, Jamie's example here. Say you're a big money bracket 190 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:03,840 racer running dragsters. I'd say the average ET is around 191 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:08,360 4:40 to 470 in that scene. I'd say that's correct. 192 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:13,440 Four 20s to 30s on the rare quick side, and four 80s are 193 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,720 basically slow now. True. 194 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:22,280 Very weird money wise the gap is insane, especially in the engine 195 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,400 department. You could probably spend 10 to 196 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:29,840 $20,000 on a decent older reliable 565 run four 80s, four 197 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:35,040 70s versus 40 to $50,000 on an all aluminum 648. 198 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:38,160 It's going to require way more maintenance as well. 199 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:43,200 In Drexler specifically, people have been paying for that extra 200 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:47,480 jump because Jamie considers it to be a huge advantage. 201 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:53,280 So after that first paragraph, let's talk about the fact. 202 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,160 Is the fast car a huge advantage? 203 00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:01,720 What are your thoughts? Yeah, I'm going, I'm going to 204 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:03,600 err on the side of yes on this one. 205 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:07,240 I'm I'm going to say yes. It is the word huge kind of miss 206 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:10,120 me a little bit. I don't like the huge word, but 207 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:15,320 if, if I had to give a percentage, I like 70% to the 208 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:19,440 fast car 70. There's just a lot of variables 209 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:26,120 that turns a lot of cards that the faster car gains by having 210 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:30,720 the faster dialing. I've always been a a really, 211 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,600 really big proponent of racing behind myself. 212 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,680 Me. This is how I I don't perceive 213 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:43,320 that to be the way I race the best, but I feel like I'm 214 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:47,280 comfortable when I'm aggressing the other car in the other lane. 215 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:49,600 Lot of people are going to see the same. 216 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,160 You can see things better, you can see things that they cannot 217 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:58,240 see being behind them as well. So I am of the mind that the 218 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:02,240 faster car is at an advantage and this doesn't have anything 219 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:06,040 to do with true start or anything of that nature for me. 220 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:10,880 Just moreover, a little bit more time to to be behind and see 221 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,480 what's happening unfold in front of you as opposed to having to 222 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,400 turn around and race 90° and it's that in the third. 223 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,880 Yeah, we're getting a lot of, we're already getting a lot of 224 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,080 stuff fired up in the chat over here. 225 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:28,400 Quiz says no and that's it. That's all he says guys. 226 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,640 No, he just came in with something else all Sunday. 227 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,640 Says to a general audience, yes. Easier to chase than being 228 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:36,640 chased. Just depends on your experience 229 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:40,280 of racing. I agree with that 100% as I'm 230 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:41,400 going to bring up here in a second. 231 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,080 Quiz chimes back in. I've been chased 92%. 232 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,160 That's a very specific number quiz. 233 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:53,120 I don't know if your math skills are at 92%, but let's just say 234 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:57,720 they are all of my racing career and I make more mistakes chasing 235 00:15:58,000 --> 00:15:59,480 because I'm more used to being chased. 236 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:04,120 And I do agree with that because what I was literally getting to 237 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:08,920 say are getting ready to say after awesome days comment here 238 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:16,720 was most of my experience has been chasing whenever I was in 239 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:20,160 junior dragsters like which has been a long time ago now. 240 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,240 Oh, we got Dylan Champion, the celebrity announcer in here now 241 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:28,040 too. Whenever I was in junior 242 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,400 dragsters, it was when they first came out. 243 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,880 So I started out I was going like 1080, something like that. 244 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:40,760 I wasn't the fastest car for sure, but I wasn't the slowest 245 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:44,520 car because of the time frame. I was racing this in the 90s and 246 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:48,920 then as soon as we could get an 890 motor, then we got 890 motor 247 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:50,240 and that was as fast as you could go. 248 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,720 So obviously if I wasn't being chased, I was the same as 249 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:57,760 someone else because you could only dial 890 and it was 790. 250 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:01,240 Same thing immediately after I turned. 251 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:05,400 As soon as I turned 16, I was in a five O 490 dragster, which 252 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:08,920 back in the early 2000s was fast, especially where we grew 253 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:14,839 up. Then I ended up in a 470 254 00:17:14,839 --> 00:17:16,200 dragster. That was where I did all my 255 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:21,440 winning stuff and I agree with both Austin and Quest here 256 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,880 because they both agree on this subject, which is what are you 257 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,720 used to? Are you used to being chased? 258 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:29,800 Are you a guy that always was being chased? 259 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:35,200 Jason Phillips, our mutual friend in junior dragster's, he 260 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,880 had like a 1890 junior dragster dude like a pole star junior 261 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:40,200 dragster. I don't know if he ever got a 262 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,600 faster one than that or not. The fact of the matter was he 263 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,400 was always being chased is basically driving a lawnmower 264 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,320 down the track. Then he got in his mom's 265 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:51,520 Mustang. What you know is probably the 266 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,120 winningest streetcar of all time, other than maybe that 267 00:17:54,120 --> 00:17:58,280 yellow Cavalier. It's it's possibly the 268 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:03,400 winningest streetcar of all time and was always being chased. 269 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:10,840 I mean, then you have people like Ricky Thomas Junior in the 270 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:14,960 in big red in that big Monte Carlo runs ten 90s running. 271 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,440 He was running St. class run 12 flat every single time. 272 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:20,320 One of the winningest cars of all time. 273 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:24,960 Chasing, not chasing, being the slow car, being the fast car 274 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:28,880 wins constantly. Just simply that dude knows how 275 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,400 to race. It's ridiculous how well he 276 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:32,840 knows how to race. That's all he's ever done. 277 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:37,320 I'm sure that I'm sure he's made a lot of house payments racing, 278 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:44,880 but the fact of the matter is I don't know if simply being fast 279 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:49,440 it will override experience. Yeah. 280 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:51,920 What are your thoughts? No, I agree with that 100%. 281 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,640 I'm going to grab some some comments out of the chat on the 282 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,920 Facebook side here. We got a few guys chimed in. 283 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:04,160 I see Brandon Justice come in and say 450 to 460 Dragster has 284 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,200 the advantage most of the time. It's fast enough to have a 285 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:10,240 second to watch the race develop in front of you. 286 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:15,680 Also not too fast where the track beats you if it gets away. 287 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:20,680 Hands down a excellent comment because those variables are 288 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:25,720 massive whereas just taking Brandon's thought process. 289 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:30,880 A 420 or a 430 car, it'd get cold. 290 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:34,000 For instance, Ice Stream for Pennington and the Pennington 291 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,760 productions. I should say in October, it gets 292 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:40,040 a little cold out there. OK, Everybody needs to know that 293 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,880 If you're coming to a race in October in Texas, going to get 294 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:46,920 chilly at night, if you're down 420 and you don't get down the 295 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,080 track, well, that's just your fault. 296 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:53,400 You know what I mean? Maybe your car's just right on 297 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:58,000 the edge of being optimal, but those 450 cars, those 460 cars, 298 00:19:58,120 --> 00:20:00,000 they're going to go down the track, all right? 299 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:04,240 I feel like there should be AET break or a thought process that 300 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:08,160 says, hey, it's going to be 50 or lower at night. 301 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:12,200 I'd better pull some horsepower back out of this dog and get it 302 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,320 at least out of the 60 foot zone, right? 303 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:17,720 So. Great comment out of Brandon 304 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,600 Justice there. I'm with you on that. 305 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,240 Jason Overstreet, Mr. Loose changed himself. 306 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:25,440 Of course, he's team door car, but I know he's got experience 307 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:31,000 in dragsters and he goes on to say I believe he said I prefer 308 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:35,640 being the slower 480 or slower in the other lane. 309 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:39,080 I feel I can judge the stripe 470 or quicker. 310 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:43,880 I hold one or two. So everybody's got us some type 311 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:48,920 of a game plan, but it's a very good, very good picture we just 312 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,840 got from loose change O Jason Overstreet, because we know he's 313 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:55,800 got a door car and that's his baby and that he's used to being 314 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:59,080 chased and you can probably be aggressive as well. 315 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,800 But he gives us the thought process from door car to 316 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,720 dragster and both of it seemingly says, I don't mind 317 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,280 being the car behind. This is kind of turning into 318 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:08,520 preference. Casey, what do you think? 319 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:13,640 Oh, yeah, absolutely. I mean, and just like Austin Day 320 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:17,160 says here also with true start, the faster car loses the 321 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,240 advantage versus the old way where the faster car sees the 322 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:24,080 red light before leaving. Yeah, 100%. 323 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,480 And the red light wouldn't matter because the Reds red. 324 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:28,360 I mean, there was a scenario back in the day. 325 00:21:28,360 --> 00:21:30,600 This has been probably 20 years ago now. 326 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:34,640 In fact, I don't know. I don't know if I've run my dad 327 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:38,240 since then. I ran him in the semis at ET 328 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:44,280 Raceway one day and I was super red, but I was so much lighter 329 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,600 than him. Our cars were the same engines I 330 00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:50,400 believe. But you know, this is 16 year 331 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,440 old Casey or whatever. They weighed like 145 lbs or 332 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,480 whatever. Yeah, dad weighed normal guy 333 00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:00,960 size and so I was like 2 hundreds faster than him and I 334 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:05,640 was like 20 red but he was like 5 red and I almost red lighted 335 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:09,600 before him but it didn't matter. It doesn't, you know, first 336 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:11,520 isn't first. First is worst. 337 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:15,560 I guess depending on which say way that you want to think about 338 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:16,520 it. First is worst. 339 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:22,280 Back then whoever left starting line first lost, whether they're 340 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:29,320 one red or 21 red. Quest being fast will cost you 341 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:32,080 at a marginal track later in the rounds as well. 342 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:36,280 Bass knuckler. For me, it's not about being 343 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,480 chased or chasing, it's about leaving the line first. 344 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,880 I prefer to leave first. Possibly a foot breaker. 345 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,240 Best tell us if you're a foot breaker or if you're a top 346 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,360 boulder over there because that'll be an interesting thing 347 00:22:47,360 --> 00:22:50,320 to see. It's funny you guys are talking 348 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:54,440 about that though, because that's the second portion, I 349 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:57,920 believe, of Jamie's example here. 350 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,240 No, that's the third. That's the third portion. 351 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,320 We'll get into that. Let's just talk about third 352 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:03,680 portion here because it doesn't matter. 353 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:06,000 It's irrelevant which direction we go here, which order. 354 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:11,040 Yeah, flashback 20 years ago, I feel like the idea of the door 355 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:15,080 car dragster separation took off because a lot of people felt 356 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:18,920 like dragsters had an advantage. Fast forward and now door cars 357 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:23,480 can be just as deadly again due to shock technology, converter 358 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:28,120 technology, things like that. I agree with that 100% and I 359 00:23:28,120 --> 00:23:33,560 think that it'd be I think that it'd be really interesting to 360 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,520 see let me see here a missed spot. 361 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,160 I think it'd be a really interesting concept to put 362 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:43,440 together some grassroots style races specifically no 363 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,080 separation. And here's the magic part. 364 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,200 No crosstalk and expose all the number holders finish line 365 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:54,520 magicians that are used to the dragster scenario I used earlier 366 00:23:54,520 --> 00:24:00,560 because now that badass 440 cars having to judge a 650 door car 367 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:02,760 second round. I really think it'd be a cool 368 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:08,080 concept and the only possible negative risk you'd take putting 369 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,560 it would be scaring away dragsters. 370 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:15,360 Maybe even throw in no buybacks, but then have a first round 371 00:24:15,360 --> 00:24:19,120 losers race that could run in between the big race rounds 372 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:24,120 after third or fourth round say. So no crosstalk, no buybacks. 373 00:24:24,120 --> 00:24:27,000 Let's just talk about the no crosstalk idea because that's 374 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,600 something that we have brought up on this show several times 375 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,960 and it's something that I specifically caught the tail end 376 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:39,680 of whenever I got into big cars. Even in, I mean in junior 377 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:43,520 Dragsters we didn't have crosstalk either, which I think 378 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,120 it's kind of irrelevant for bottom bulb type stuff because I 379 00:24:46,120 --> 00:24:48,240 guess one bulb just hangs on longer. 380 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:53,080 But the fact of the matter is, is that crosstalk allows it 381 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:54,960 where you're always hitting your side of the tree. 382 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:56,960 And that young guys out there, we might as well say this 383 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,280 because the young guys out there, you, you might not have 384 00:24:59,360 --> 00:25:00,920 ever. Yeah, You don't know any 385 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:04,880 different because I'm almost 40 years old and I barely caught 386 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:06,840 the tail end of it. And that was just at the smaller 387 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:10,360 tracks because Gateway started Crosstalk because it's National 388 00:25:10,360 --> 00:25:12,280 Event Facility. They started as soon as it came 389 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:18,640 out. But there was a time where I-57 390 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:24,280 drag strip place, place that you and I grew up at you had to add 391 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,800 in, on average, you would have to take 10 out to crossover. 392 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,640 That was always the rule of thumb, but whatever the lights 393 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,800 came on, what if the lights are shining on that side harder? 394 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,360 You might have to take even more out and you had to know that 395 00:25:37,360 --> 00:25:39,240 type of stuff. And if you go back to the other 396 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,080 lane, if you get pushed over to left lane, which back then it 397 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,160 was fast car always got lane choice, which is a real weird 398 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,640 adjustment for me out here. By the way, whenever I first 399 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:50,000 started coming out here, I bet you I raced for a year and I was 400 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:53,040 giving people lanes and I'm like, oh man, I could have had, 401 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:55,080 I could have had lane choice for a year. 402 00:25:55,600 --> 00:26:01,280 But anyway, man, there, there was a time that you had to look 403 00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,600 over at the other bulb whenever it came on. 404 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,280 And that's whenever you let go and you had to add in your box 405 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,000 or subtract in your box. And if you're in the right lane 406 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,120 versus the left lane, maybe the lights would shine on that side 407 00:26:12,120 --> 00:26:15,240 harder than they would on this side because that's the side the 408 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,080 tower's on. And they have lights on the 409 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,200 tower at every single track for the most part. 410 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,240 And that's where the starting line lighting comes from. 411 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,520 And you had to compensate for that. 412 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:27,760 I really believe if they turn crosstalk off, I think there's a 413 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,480 lot of people and I'm not talking just young guys, I'm 414 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,600 talking a lot of people in general that you see winning a 415 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,600 lot. I don't think those guys would 416 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:39,440 be winning for about a year if if you did that so. 417 00:26:40,120 --> 00:26:42,960 I, I beg to differ and the only reason why is because the 418 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:47,160 components that allow us to hit the tree these days, it isn't a, 419 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:50,440 you got to know what to take out or what to add in or any of 420 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:52,200 that. Any it's a put the dialing in 421 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:56,560 and go to work. Give us enough time looking in 422 00:26:56,560 --> 00:27:00,200 the other lane as opposed to the light flashing kind of back in 423 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,280 the day where I didn't get to Drag Race like that. 424 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,600 My dad did, my uncle did. I got to watch it all that time. 425 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:11,360 Give it a little bit of a few practice rounds and I feel like 426 00:27:11,360 --> 00:27:13,560 it's back, it's back to where we are now. 427 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,960 So it doesn't matter to me if the lights on on my side or if 428 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:20,320 it's on the other side, if I can see that light clearly, which 429 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,480 generally the lights are somehow illuminated to show you both. 430 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,400 All I'm doing is cutting my head around a little bit different. 431 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,080 I still think there's going to be a lot of people to knock that 432 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,840 tree down. So the crosstalk idea, I don't 433 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:36,800 feel like that contributes to what the faster the reason why 434 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,640 the faster director is at and advantage. 435 00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:43,200 I don't because again, our components now you're going to 436 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,280 have to take out the lay boxes to be at the Biondo box that the 437 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:49,440 pro cube. Heck, even the old dead and 438 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,120 bear, I think, used to be able to put the little dial in there 439 00:27:52,120 --> 00:27:55,120 and and dial and it would hold you at the start line anyway. 440 00:27:55,120 --> 00:28:00,280 So I'm a little bit indifferent when it comes to the crossover 441 00:28:00,360 --> 00:28:03,840 section of it all, and I don't think it would uncover very much 442 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:05,640 at all. Leave your comments because I 443 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:09,640 this is opinion based. I think that it would. 444 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:13,360 And again, it's because of the angle and more so than the 445 00:28:13,360 --> 00:28:18,280 angle, I think that in your local scenario, I don't think it 446 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:21,200 would matter that much. Let's just take for example, the 447 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:22,680 spring flings going on right now. 448 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:25,520 Literally as we speak, they got shootout going on right now. 449 00:28:26,360 --> 00:28:30,720 If you're from, well, it's, it's in my neck of the woods, 450 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:32,240 literally 20 minutes from my house. 451 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,520 You're from Texas. You come out here and let's say 452 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:37,720 we don't have crosstalk. So you got to leave off. 453 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:41,160 Let's say you're dialed 6 flat. I'm dialed 650. 454 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:45,680 So you're leaving off my bulb. You got a time run. 455 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:48,200 You're probably leaving off your side. 456 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:51,400 Figure out where you're at now we're running first round. 457 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:55,120 You have one shot. You're you're going to hit it 458 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:57,880 slower. It's the angle changes. 459 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,040 The angle is not consistent anywhere. 460 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:03,040 It's it's just whatever angle it's at pointed at the driver. 461 00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:06,080 Maybe it's straight, Maybe that's the answer if they point 462 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,400 straight all the time. And here's the other. 463 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:12,000 Answer You can't turn the light to the the car in. 464 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:13,360 The other lane they used to. Be straight. 465 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:15,000 Has to be. Straight used to. 466 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,720 And here's the other thing though, they used to be 467 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:19,640 incandescent. Maybe it doesn't matter with 468 00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,320 LEDs. Right now, in, in, in when 469 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:24,760 you're saying they used to turn it, I think it may have been 470 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:28,920 skewed a little bit the other way, but you could still see it 471 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:32,440 in the other lane in your, I would be on the outside of the 472 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:36,640 car, standing on the far side of the car towards the guardrail 473 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:38,360 instead of in the middle of the track. 474 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,280 And I could, I used to stand there like every other little 475 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,000 kid in the world and just let go, you know what I mean? 476 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:47,800 And I remember getting a really good view of that light every 477 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,960 single time so. But we're talking about 478 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:52,040 thousands. Again. 479 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:53,120 Again about. Thousands. 480 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:54,560 Again. Again. 481 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:59,280 You're not going to red light on crossing over, I can assure you 482 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:02,680 of that. The delay box changes the game 483 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:09,000 period, it changes it. So our equipment nowadays and I 484 00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:14,360 think that the disparity that used to be is no more in today's 485 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:15,320 age. That's what I think. 486 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:20,280 That's what I think so. It's interesting, interesting. 487 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:23,120 That's the whole point of this. Let's go back up. 488 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,800 Let me see where I was at. So we were talking about. 489 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,880 So this is his example of the fast car having the huge 490 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:33,080 advantage. Sam dialed 455. 491 00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:38,040 The guy next to me is dialed 65. I know within the 1st 100 feet 492 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:42,560 how I'm looking as far as tracks position goes and even have a 493 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:47,240 better idea of who hit the tree better than the slower guy. 494 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:52,400 Even if I know he hit the tree better, I've got more time to 495 00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:54,920 plan for the finish line strategy. 496 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:59,760 I could see that being the case. I could also have decided to 497 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:03,280 hold five that particular round endowed for 60, and then I get 498 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:06,440 an even better idea in the 1st 100 feet, and it's easier for 499 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:10,040 those guys to play with that many numbers in their ETS that 500 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:13,120 close. I think that advantage is what's 501 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:17,240 driving these engine costs up ultimately, and turning the 502 00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:22,720 dragster class specifically into a spending competition when 503 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,520 going back to its roots. Bracket racing gives the poor 504 00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:27,440 man a chance. That was what it was originally 505 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:31,400 invented for, specifically calling out Gage Birch in the 506 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:36,960 Ranger when in the first SFG Mega race, the $525,000 race, 507 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,800 which we all know, which that's how everybody learned about. 508 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:44,120 Hey, Gage Burch is this guy outside of Florida, people 509 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:48,160 figured out who he was and Donny Hagar, obviously people figured 510 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:50,480 out who he was in the same scenario. 511 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:58,040 So I guess the whole purpose of that portion of it is just to 512 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:01,120 expand on the fact of why was bracket racing created. 513 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:05,160 It was specifically created because class racing was too 514 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:09,240 expensive. So this is more of a talk along 515 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:13,760 the lines of how much money are people willing to spend to go 516 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:18,000 bracket racing nowadays? Because I have learned in my 517 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:22,880 personal experience, outside of the initial expense of a class 518 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:27,240 car, which we all know, I mean, you can bracket race anything. 519 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:29,760 I mean, you bracket raced your Cavalier for years streetcar 520 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:32,120 that you drove to work every single day that we drove all 521 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:37,880 over the place and the and the point is bracket racing was 522 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:43,440 invented to be able to make that Cavalier competitive with my 523 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:47,280 Chevelle top sportsman car. And bracket racing does it does 524 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:52,240 if you know your car. However, it's gotten to the 525 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:59,160 point where I think a lot of people have, they chase things 526 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:03,680 that they don't. I don't know. 527 00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:07,280 I don't know what the correct phrasing for it would be. 528 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:12,840 They're chasing things that they don't necessarily want to chase. 529 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:15,600 They think they have to chase because that's what's in the 530 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:19,680 news all the time type thing. But the fact of the matter is 531 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:23,400 there still is your local bracket racing facility where 532 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:27,120 you don't have to do to keep up with the Joneses. 533 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:30,360 And also, what's that guy's name? 534 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:34,080 Justin Daniels Showtime. That's a old race car. 535 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,520 Me and you saw that car when we were kids. 536 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:38,080 That car had been around for 20 years. 537 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:40,280 And he wins just as much now as he did back. 538 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:41,280 Then he did back there. That's right. 539 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:44,320 That's right, that's right. So I don't think that you 540 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,600 necessarily need the latest and greatest stuff because I 541 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:53,000 personally believe that a lot of these new dragster things, 542 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:55,480 they're nice. I mean, let's get it. 543 00:33:55,480 --> 00:34:02,960 Let's let's not, you know, we would all like to have a, I 544 00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:05,320 don't know what's a fancy car, Rolls Royce or something, right? 545 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:09,199 They're nice, right? No, no. 546 00:34:09,199 --> 00:34:11,320 The fact, hey, if someone's giving you a Rolls Royce, you're 547 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:12,320 taking it. Don't lie. 548 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,760 The keyword. Was they gave it to me. 549 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:16,800 So yeah, that's the right story. But the fact. 550 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:19,360 Of the matter, we can agree that a Rolls Royce is nicer than 551 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:21,960 Cadillac, right? Yeah, absolutely. 552 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:27,159 Yeah, but the fact of the matter is, is a lot of stuff on the 553 00:34:27,159 --> 00:34:29,719 Rolls Royce is a gimmick. It's just something to make it 554 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:31,480 look nice. You don't need stars on your 555 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,120 ceiling. You're not sleeping in that car. 556 00:34:33,199 --> 00:34:35,600 If you can afford a Rolls Royce, you got a house. 557 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:39,080 I assure you, you got a house. And if you don't, I'll know what 558 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:41,639 you're doing. But anyway, back to the matter 559 00:34:41,639 --> 00:34:45,560 is a lot of these things that are coming out on dragsters 560 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,760 probably for the last 10 years, they're kind of gimmicks. 561 00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:51,320 You know, they're just like, this is different than that. 562 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:53,880 It's cool to have adjustable pedals. 563 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:55,880 It's cool to have adjustable steering wheel. 564 00:34:56,639 --> 00:35:01,440 But I can also tell you that 99% of people will get in a dragster 565 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,800 and fit. You don't need that stuff. 566 00:35:04,240 --> 00:35:05,920 I mean, I've done it a million times. 567 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:09,360 I, I would venture to say that most people who own a dragster 568 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:12,360 right now is dreaming someone else's dragster and probably 569 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:16,040 been mildly successful in it. But the fact of the matter is, 570 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:19,800 you know, you got to have people have a reason why they need a 571 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:21,280 new dragster because they're all the same. 572 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:26,360 And that's why dragsters are $150,000 because you got 573 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:28,920 adjustable foot pedals and something that you could take 3 574 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:31,440 bolts out of and change where it's at. 575 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:34,200 Yeah, I think that's one of the main reasons. 576 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:37,760 And you know, like you said, keeping up with the Joneses, you 577 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:41,000 could throw business into it if you want to, where you just put 578 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:44,000 as many components on a car as you can and spend as much money 579 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,960 as you can in order to to get rid of it as much money as you 580 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:48,680 can. That's all I can really see 581 00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:55,200 because in today's age as a dragster or a dragster, to me, a 582 00:35:55,200 --> 00:36:00,520 five O 5 to a 525 dialed dragster is the deadliest weapon 583 00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:05,760 on the planet to me. Because the 420 dragster racing 584 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:09,600 against a car that's dropped, that's dialed a whole second 585 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:15,440 slower now has to chase that car at what 25 mile an hour faster? 586 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:22,520 That is a that is a big barrier to keep the human element out of 587 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:26,440 giving back the stripe or killing too much ET right. 588 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:31,320 That 525 to five O 5 gesture is going to run the number without 589 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:33,960 spinning the tires seemingly every RIP. 590 00:36:34,240 --> 00:36:40,040 So have are we ever in today's age, right now, in today's era, 591 00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:43,640 are we going to see a $100,000 five second gesture? 592 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:48,360 No, it's almost impossible to do that unless you. 593 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:50,680 I don't even know what you would do to do that. 594 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:54,560 You'd have to Chrome plate the entire thing like you'd have to. 595 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:58,800 I don't even know what you'd do. Therefore, it goes back to the 596 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:02,320 the thought process of why drag racing was created and it is to 597 00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:08,320 make that 5 second car that's worth 20,000, that 2019 99 598 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:13,400 hardtail car that runs five O 5 every single RIP every time down 599 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,960 the track and all he's got to do is hit the tree. 600 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:19,640 Oh, that car is just as competitive as that $150,000 601 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:23,440 dragster. So that's why bracket racing was 602 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:28,640 created and that's why there's a disparity that we're about to 603 00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:32,160 get into a little bit deeper, especially as we get into this 604 00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:35,000 whole notion of door car or dragster. 605 00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:38,760 Hang in there though, because it's that time we got to let our 606 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:40,760 marketing partners get a few words in. 607 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:42,920 We'll come right back with more from GBR. 608 00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:50,280 Don't go anywhere.

We will add to the questions 656 00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:46,640 from the pits as we continue with today's question. 657 00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:52,200 All about to my consideration, the advantages and disadvantages 658 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:54,880 of having whatever type of car that you chose. 659 00:40:55,120 --> 00:41:01,120 Casey, let's keep it moving. Well, we had a lot of stuff in 660 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:04,360 the chat over here of people saying a lot of monkey see 661 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:06,680 monkey doing the sport. I agree with that. 662 00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:10,040 I, you know, keeping up with the neighbors, stuff like that. 663 00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:12,440 I think there's a lot of people that spend money on things they 664 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:17,480 otherwise don't, they don't need because ultimately, at the end 665 00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:20,600 of the day, let's just use the example I use all the time. 666 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:22,560 Corioletti's going to win in anything, guys. 667 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,080 I mean, he can. He can win in my cars. 668 00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:27,160 He went in George's cars. He went in his own cars. 669 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:28,560 Doesn't matter. He's a great racer. 670 00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:31,680 He's just going to win. I mean, same thing with Gage 671 00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:33,280 Burt, same thing with Matt Daddis. 672 00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:36,800 I mean, are their cars probably better suited? 673 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:38,480 Are they used to their cars more? 674 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:43,280 Yes, I'm sure they are. But I think that if they got in 675 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:48,120 anyone else's, I mean, look at I guarantee you Donovan Williams, 676 00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:51,400 it's in his blood to drive anything and win anything. 677 00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:55,720 His his dad and his uncle did that for years and years and 678 00:41:55,720 --> 00:41:59,680 years. Jeff Sarah, you mean to tell me 679 00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:02,120 he can't win and anything he gets in, Of course he can. 680 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:04,120 He wins in cars that shouldn't be winning. 681 00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:08,000 He wins millions of dollars in cars that shouldn't be winning. 682 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:12,160 And it seems like, but the fact of the matter is, is that I 683 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:15,800 think that you can make pretty much any back half car. 684 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:18,880 If you have $25,000, that might not be the prettiest car on the 685 00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:21,520 planet, but as long as the chassis straight, you have about 686 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:25,520 25 grand, I think you can make it about as good as it can 687 00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:29,480 possibly be. 650 car. I don't think that you need 688 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:33,320 anything more than you need a converter for your combination. 689 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,240 You need obviously a reliable motor with a good carburetor on 690 00:42:36,240 --> 00:42:38,720 it. You need the best shots you can 691 00:42:38,720 --> 00:42:44,280 get and new tires and that's that car is going to go dead on 692 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:45,720 every single time. Yeah. 693 00:42:45,720 --> 00:42:49,800 But let's get off into it though, because I believe in the 694 00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:53,320 bracket racing community as a whole, and this is of course 695 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:59,400 opinion. There is a, a, a, a, a running 696 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:03,400 debate that has been going on especially since the door car 697 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:07,480 versus door car, dragster versus dragster era that we ushered 698 00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:11,560 into as big money bracket racing got larger and larger and larger 699 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:12,880 is the best way that I could put it. 700 00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:16,840 Everybody chose which way to go. You either chose a door car, you 701 00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:20,600 chose a dragster, you chose a four 90s dragster, or you chose 702 00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:25,960 the four 30s dragster, you chose a 60 car, or you chose, you 703 00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:30,520 know, a 50 car, door car, 650, whatever you want to call it. 704 00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:37,880 Which car has the advantage materially, optically on the 705 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:41,360 track? I don't care what side Casey has 706 00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:44,160 the advantage. Is it a door car or is it a 707 00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:46,560 dragster? Tell me your thoughts guys, 708 00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:49,760 leave them in the chat. I mean in my experience and I've 709 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:51,880 about had everything there could possibly be. 710 00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:55,720 Now I haven't had a what I consider a top dragster would be 711 00:43:55,720 --> 00:43:58,880 like a four O car. You know, I know a lot of people 712 00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:02,600 are saying top dragsters are like 0450 top dragster. 713 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:04,200 It's not top dragster anymore, guys. 714 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:06,760 Hard hate to tell you that. It's just not that's a bracket 715 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:08,960 car. But the fact of the matter is, 716 00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:12,800 is that I've pretty much driven anything there is to drive now. 717 00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:17,280 And I kind of think it's whatever you invest the most 718 00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:19,880 time into figuring out how to make it good. 719 00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:24,920 My buddy Adam Bouya, it's hard to argue that his Mustang is not 720 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:26,520 one of the best cars out there right now. 721 00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:27,920 Maddie's driving it this weekend. 722 00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:31,440 It's hard to argue that Dylan champions Camaro, which is 723 00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:36,040 really nothing special, is one of the best cars in the entire 724 00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:38,760 country and has been for the last three years. 725 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:41,560 And everybody knows that. Everybody in North Carolina 726 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:46,920 knows that for sure, dude. It's hard to argue that 727 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:50,720 honestly, if I could have put 439 on my car at the last Mad 728 00:44:50,720 --> 00:44:55,840 Dog race, that car went 439 with a four at, you know, at 729 00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:59,920 Farmington, which is it's, it's not a national event facility. 730 00:44:59,920 --> 00:45:02,840 It's a older racetrack. It's a nice racetrack, but it's, 731 00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:05,000 I'm just saying it's not Gateway or something. 732 00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:06,760 It's not super track, it's not Bristol. 733 00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:11,480 I'm at 439 with A4 in that car on Friday night at maybe like 734 00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:15,840 7:30 and then the next morning I come back at 11:30 or 12:00 in 735 00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:18,320 the daytime and I go 439 with a four again. 736 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:22,880 And now they're like, so I mean it's just a matter of investing 737 00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:24,840 time in the car and making the car good. 738 00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:27,240 I don't think there's advantage or disadvantage as far as 739 00:45:27,240 --> 00:45:31,960 consistency goes. I think that there is. 740 00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:37,160 There's an advantage in knowing your combination and I think the 741 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:42,720 guy who knows his combination better this day and age and can 742 00:45:42,720 --> 00:45:44,960 hit the tree cuz you got to be able to hit the tree and run the 743 00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:46,480 number. That's what everybody forgets 744 00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:47,800 nowadays. It's not all about holding 745 00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:49,800 numbers. It's about hitting the tree and 746 00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:51,480 running the number. No matter how you get to the 747 00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:53,680 number. I don't care if you hold 20 748 00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:56,400 numbers like Jeff, Sarah, Donovan Williams, those guys, 749 00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:59,240 they can get back to the number. They know where it's at. 750 00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:02,560 Or if you're the guy that just drives, like Randy Render, 751 00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:06,520 Barbie said one time, I just drive like this, and that's fine 752 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:07,880 too, as long as you run the number. 753 00:46:08,720 --> 00:46:12,160 The fact of the matter is, the best package wins. 754 00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:16,920 And what do you feel more comfortable and more what? 755 00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:22,080 What do you think it's more likely for you to have the best 756 00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:24,960 package on that run? Focus on your stuff. 757 00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:28,680 What can you afford? What can you afford to make the 758 00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:30,560 best it can be? Yep, Yep. 759 00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:31,920 No, I agree with that. I do. 760 00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:35,560 I do. I think that it is still a very 761 00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:41,880 even race in a bracket event. It all comes down to that dog on 762 00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:44,160 start in line and I don't care what you're in. 763 00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:48,760 OK, so if you cannot hit the tree during this show, I've 764 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:52,280 probably let go 15 times, maybe 20. 765 00:46:52,600 --> 00:46:56,200 All right, if you can't hit the tree, you're in for a world of 766 00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:57,680 trouble. I don't care if you're in a 767 00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:01,040 dragster or a door car, that's that's number one. 768 00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:04,920 OK, but let's take that variable out and let's just say you can 769 00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:06,960 hit the tree just fine with no problem. 770 00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:09,160 And your opponent, he's the same as you. 771 00:47:09,440 --> 00:47:11,200 Matter of fact, you're racing yourself. 772 00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:13,720 One of you is in the door car of yourself. 773 00:47:13,720 --> 00:47:16,160 You got a copy in the door car. You got a copy in a dragster. 774 00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:23,480 Myself, George, I feel like the dragster still has the slight 775 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:28,120 advantage, mostly because the race is happening behind it, 776 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:30,680 right? It's, it's all in front of the 777 00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:34,680 dragster for, for, for me, It's behind me in my door car. 778 00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:37,640 Dial five 80s or five 90s, whatever is going to be running 779 00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:40,640 for the year. So I give the little bit of a, 780 00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:43,000 an advantage to the dragster in that sense. 781 00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:46,640 Or even the fast door car. I take a little bit away from 782 00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:49,800 the fast door car because I can see you coming a whole heck of a 783 00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:52,040 lot easier than I can see a dragster coming. 784 00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:57,280 That's pretty much it. So right now I'm sticking with 785 00:47:57,280 --> 00:48:01,240 the dragster, but it's very, very minimal. 786 00:48:01,240 --> 00:48:05,600 It's not a huge disparity because that same person chasing 787 00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:10,560 a car at that much mile an hour difference still has to know 788 00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:14,320 what he's got to get rid of or if he's getting there too quick. 789 00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:17,880 And I think that that's a hard thing to do. 790 00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:23,080 That's also why I feel like we have dragster door car or don't 791 00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:26,280 have them any longer. It's always door car, door car, 792 00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:30,120 dragster, Dragster racing is happening side by side a whole 793 00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:32,880 lot more often because of that beat. 794 00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:40,120 I almost wish we would go back to dragster versus door car more 795 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:43,120 often. The hard part is we get so many 796 00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:45,840 cars and man, that's a time killer. 797 00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:49,360 You really gain gain time when the door cars come to the line 798 00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:52,520 and lose time when the directors come to the line because they 799 00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:55,000 burn out across the line and dilly dally getting back. 800 00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:58,080 I'm sorry, guys, director, guys, I don't mean to rag on you, but 801 00:48:58,720 --> 00:49:01,000 or most of you, I should say. I won't put you all in the same 802 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:02,880 category, right, There's some of you. 803 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:06,280 You'd be staged before. Dang it, the door card get pre 804 00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:07,920 staged before door card doesn't burn out. 805 00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:11,360 Right, But that's all I see Casey. 806 00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:12,840 That's the main reason for door card. 807 00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:15,920 Door card director director is time, but I'm still giving the 808 00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:17,760 director the edge. That's what I'm. 809 00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:20,320 Getting Yeah. And, and based on what you say 810 00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:24,040 there, I can tell you right now that being in both positions, 811 00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:28,840 it's a lot easier to always see. You can see the finish line and 812 00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:31,480 you can see your opponent at the same time when you're the faster 813 00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:34,800 car, when you're the slower car, the only way to see your 814 00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:37,240 opponent is to take your eyes off the finish line. 815 00:49:38,440 --> 00:49:45,080 And that's the whole, that's why you rarely see a, that's why you 816 00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:49,720 rarely see the faster opponent get in like a skidding scenario 817 00:49:49,720 --> 00:49:52,080 of because they got caught up in the race and stuff. 818 00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:55,320 That's why it's almost always the slower car because they're 819 00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:57,920 like looking back for this guy. And then all of a sudden you 820 00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:00,520 look forward, you're like, oh, there's a finish line, bomb the 821 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:03,000 brakes. Yep, put it this way Casey, it's 822 00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:06,920 an old saying that says race by the seat of your pants and I 823 00:50:06,960 --> 00:50:10,480 feel like people have misconstrued that that comment. 824 00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:14,360 It's not you erase what you see in the other lane. 825 00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:17,000 It's not. If you're not looking at the 826 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:21,400 finish line and you hear your motor, do you know where you are 827 00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:25,000 on the racetrack? I used to. 828 00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:27,080 Not as much anymore, but I used to. 829 00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:30,240 Because you're in you're in a Chevelle and it's it's newer, 830 00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:32,640 you know, you haven't gotten as many laps underneath it. 831 00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:36,320 But in MO, I'm telling you, I can stand on that throttle and I 832 00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:39,480 can almost feel that finish line coming without even looking at 833 00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:42,920 it half the time because I'm racing by the seat of my pants, 834 00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:45,800 not necessarily looking at the finish line. 835 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:49,800 You see what I mean? So I feel like, you know, as you 836 00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:53,040 said, the more laps you get in your piece of equipment, the 837 00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:57,560 more you know your vehicle. There's variables that you have 838 00:50:57,560 --> 00:51:01,560 to learn how to do, but the seat of your pants puts you at a 839 00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:03,920 disadvantage. You're not looking at the finish 840 00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:06,920 line. You are in a mind frame of 841 00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:10,200 proximity as opposed to visual visual proximity. 842 00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:13,160 You know what I mean? There's a big difference between 843 00:51:13,160 --> 00:51:16,360 the two. And that, that brings up another 844 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:19,000 thought that I've had. It's like you have these guys 845 00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:23,000 that run extremely fast cars that also bracket race. 846 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:26,400 Like, for example, obviously the guy who runs the fastest car 847 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:31,520 that bracket races regularly, Sean Langdon, you know, this 848 00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:33,360 guy's running 4 seconds in the eighth mile. 849 00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:36,280 He's running 3 seconds in the quarter mile regularly for his 850 00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:40,120 job. Talk about knowing your place on 851 00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:41,760 the track. That dudes like, it's basically 852 00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:44,880 like he's walking, you know? And I mean, talk about being 853 00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:47,000 able to read the finish line you got. 854 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:50,320 Who else is there? Travis Harvey. 855 00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:55,680 Travis Harvey winning anything. You know, whenever, whenever 856 00:51:55,680 --> 00:51:58,840 you're running these fast cars and you put someone in a slow 857 00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:01,760 car, like say you have someone running a dragster that's used 858 00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:04,200 to running a dragster and then you put them in a door car. 859 00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:08,160 Is it like swinging a donut on a bat for a baseball player before 860 00:52:08,160 --> 00:52:11,120 they're going to try to hit a home run or something like that? 861 00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:14,320 Like, is it like Albert Pujols over here swinging 3 bats and 862 00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:16,760 now he's going to go crank out three or four home runs that 863 00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:19,960 game? I don't know the answer to that 864 00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:20,920 question. You know what I mean? 865 00:52:23,360 --> 00:52:23,800 I don't. I don't. 866 00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:24,480 I don't know. Casey. 867 00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:26,960 It's it's it's it's weird. I almost don't understand it. 868 00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:28,960 Rephrase it. Rephrase the question. 869 00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:34,600 Just, I mean, I guess just simple scenarios like say you 870 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:38,520 personally, let's say you're used to going 450. 871 00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:42,760 Let's say you got a 450 dragster and let's say you got your truck 872 00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:46,400 6 OS, right? And let's say it's store car 873 00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:48,880 dragster separation. So you're used to running 874 00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:52,200 454-5450 and then all of a sudden you get in your truck and 875 00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:55,400 now we're going 6 O's. This stuff's all so slowed down 876 00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:56,960 now because you're a second and a half start. 877 00:52:56,960 --> 00:53:01,160 Dude, I'm telling you, my Chevelle, my Chevelle will get 878 00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:06,320 to my, my Chevelle would get to the quarter mile before my Nova 879 00:53:06,320 --> 00:53:10,160 would get to the eighth mile. You know, so it's like if I, if 880 00:53:10,160 --> 00:53:11,960 I'm constantly racing the Chevelle and then all of a 881 00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:14,480 sudden I run the Nova and then we're talking, we're not talking 882 00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:16,760 me running a 450 drag, we're talking door cars. 883 00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:20,560 Drags are separated because typically if they're separated, 884 00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:25,280 most door cars, I would say 80% of door cars run between 570 and 885 00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:29,480 6:50 somewhere in there. So no one's ever going to be 886 00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:31,000 that much faster, that much slower. 887 00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:33,160 But if I'm constantly running the Chevelle and I'm running a 888 00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:35,520 quarter mile or something and all of a sudden I run the Nova, 889 00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:38,480 it feels like I was swinging a doughnut on a bat. 890 00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:40,920 It feels like all of a sudden now I'm looking over and I'm 891 00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:43,200 like, man, I'm never going to get the finish line, you know? 892 00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:45,800 So it was all this stuff slowed down so much where you're 893 00:53:45,800 --> 00:53:47,520 looking over now and everything's just like this 894 00:53:47,520 --> 00:53:50,560 car's just barely creeping on you, whereas normally you're 895 00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:53,080 used to it going. Yeah, I think, I think that's a 896 00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:56,960 huge barrier. I think that that is a great 897 00:53:56,960 --> 00:53:58,640 equalizer is what you're mentioning. 898 00:53:59,240 --> 00:54:02,920 I've never driven a director, so I can't tell you how fast that 899 00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:06,200 director is actually closing on me by experience of being in a 900 00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:10,520 director. One thing that I would say if I 901 00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:14,640 had the capability of doing that, many light bulbs would 902 00:54:14,640 --> 00:54:18,720 turn on for me just by having the opportunity to have ran a 903 00:54:18,720 --> 00:54:22,840 director and then get back into MO to where, yes, now it is 904 00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:26,920 slowed down quite a bit and I'm at the mile an hour cone, but 905 00:54:26,920 --> 00:54:29,320 he's not here yet. And then I'm going to try to hit 906 00:54:29,320 --> 00:54:31,200 the brakes and then boom, he's there. 907 00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:37,000 OK, that that difference in being able to do it physically 908 00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:40,480 instead of watching it, that would make a big difference too. 909 00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:43,080 And I feel like there's a lot of people in the same boat there. 910 00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:46,440 Well, everyone watching this show obviously has driven down 911 00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:47,840 the Interstate. You would have driven the 912 00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:52,320 Interstate to go to the racetrack more likely so, But we 913 00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:55,240 all know there's always this idiot flying down the Interstate 914 00:54:55,240 --> 00:54:59,360 where you're going allegedly might be going 1015 over and all 915 00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:02,000 of a sudden someone blast past you like they're standing, like 916 00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:04,240 you're standing still. And you say, man, that guy must 917 00:55:04,240 --> 00:55:06,200 be going 95 mile an hour. Right. 918 00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:10,560 That's only 20-30 mile an hour difference, man. 919 00:55:11,240 --> 00:55:16,240 And so whenever you're used to chasing somebody that fast and 920 00:55:16,240 --> 00:55:19,720 now all of a sudden we're door to door, it makes things a lot 921 00:55:19,720 --> 00:55:21,680 easier. And I would be very interested 922 00:55:21,680 --> 00:55:24,880 to see what Jamie's talking about and all these examples and 923 00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:27,400 all this question from the pits type stuff. 924 00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:33,200 How would they do if we didn't separate them anymore? 925 00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:36,920 Because I personally think that a lot of people are out of the 926 00:55:36,920 --> 00:55:39,160 mindset of the dragster is advantage. 927 00:55:39,320 --> 00:55:41,440 I think that track prep has caught up. 928 00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:47,000 I think that technology has caught up. 20 years ago, I think 929 00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:50,480 absolutely the dragsters were an advantage 100%. 930 00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:53,800 But I don't think that's the case anymore. 931 00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:55,480 I think tire technology is caught up. 932 00:55:55,480 --> 00:55:58,760 I think track prep is caught up. I think shock technology is 933 00:55:58,760 --> 00:56:00,920 caught up. I think racer mentality has 934 00:56:00,920 --> 00:56:03,720 caught up and people have learned how to drive that way 935 00:56:04,320 --> 00:56:09,120 that I personally believe. If they quit separating door 936 00:56:09,120 --> 00:56:12,520 cars and dragsters, I think you see a whole lot more door cars 937 00:56:12,520 --> 00:56:14,320 out there than dragsters. Interesting. 938 00:56:14,520 --> 00:56:17,400 Yeah, that would be, I would definitely like to know. 939 00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:20,640 I think I was looking on the Facebook side here and might 940 00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:23,400 have been Jim Baucher who might have said something about 941 00:56:24,080 --> 00:56:28,000 watching, sitting down and watching a million or a big 942 00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:33,040 dollar race and and jotting down the average packages for door 943 00:56:33,040 --> 00:56:37,560 cars and dragsters. There's a a, a difference, a big 944 00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:40,360 difference. I don't know which way it sways 945 00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:44,320 Jim, but would love to know you know what I mean. 946 00:56:44,440 --> 00:56:50,320 This is the question though, and I that just brought up what I 947 00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:54,080 was thinking about the other day You and I were talking about is 948 00:56:54,080 --> 00:56:57,560 the difference in the overall package primarily due to 949 00:56:57,560 --> 00:57:00,320 reaction time. And the reason I say that is not 950 00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:02,760 because one's easier to hit the tree than the other. 951 00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:06,840 Primarily if you're looking at the dragster category, I would 952 00:57:06,840 --> 00:57:10,720 say the age is under 30 of those people on average driving the 953 00:57:10,720 --> 00:57:13,200 dragsters. People under the, I shouldn't 954 00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:17,240 say that people under the age of 30 are far more likely to be 955 00:57:17,240 --> 00:57:20,080 driving dragsters. That's what I would say. 956 00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:25,480 And I think people under the age of 30 at about 10:00 at night, 957 00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:29,760 12:00 at night, definitely 2 in the morning are much more likely 958 00:57:29,760 --> 00:57:33,880 to be double O on the tree than somebody over the age of 3040 959 00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:35,520 for sure. So. 960 00:57:35,840 --> 00:57:38,320 Yeah, yeah. Personal experience guys, I'm 961 00:57:38,360 --> 00:57:40,720 just saying. Well, we know that the youth of 962 00:57:40,720 --> 00:57:45,560 the sport, especially in today's age, these young Gunners are 963 00:57:45,560 --> 00:57:48,680 really, really, really turning it up but. 964 00:57:49,280 --> 00:57:52,000 They're dominant at night. They're definitely dominant late 965 00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:54,480 night, late night, you let them get in late and you might be in 966 00:57:54,480 --> 00:57:57,880 deep trouble just by sheer you didn't have enough Red Bull 967 00:57:57,880 --> 00:57:59,920 something I don't know, Red Bull. 968 00:57:59,920 --> 00:58:02,080 That was a plug you want to sponsor, just let me know go on 969 00:58:02,080 --> 00:58:04,080 brackerisntgmail.com. Anyway, anyway they. 970 00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:05,560 Seem like they got a lot of money. 971 00:58:06,320 --> 00:58:10,120 Well, it seemed like it, you know, Yeah, Casey, man, I feel 972 00:58:10,120 --> 00:58:13,280 like it's a good, a good, a great topic. 973 00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:16,880 And there's more to it even still. 974 00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:21,000 I still, I'm still going to say dragsters have a little bit of 975 00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:25,400 edge. The intimidation factor has to 976 00:58:25,400 --> 00:58:29,440 be thrown into the mix as well where not everybody is. 977 00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:33,240 I won't say everybody's intimidated to run a dragster, 978 00:58:33,240 --> 00:58:35,760 especially coming out of the door car, door car dragster, 979 00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:39,400 dragster format. That dragster still intimidates 980 00:58:39,400 --> 00:58:43,320 door car drivers just a little, at least some of us not going to 981 00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:46,640 say all of us. So there's there's just a few 982 00:58:46,640 --> 00:58:51,280 variables that I give a slight advantage, a slight edge to the 983 00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:53,760 dragster. Sounds like you take door cars. 984 00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:58,560 Who do you take, Casey? I take again, I kind of go back 985 00:58:58,560 --> 00:59:02,200 to, I take whoever I feel like is the most confident because I 986 00:59:02,200 --> 00:59:03,560 can tell you right now. Nope. 987 00:59:03,560 --> 00:59:07,200 Stop, stop, stop. Hey, no, no, this is a perfect. 988 00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:09,720 This is a great example. This is a great example right 989 00:59:09,720 --> 00:59:12,000 here. It's a Great North Carolina 990 00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:16,040 example for the Spring Fling. OK, you give me Sean Carpenter, 991 00:59:16,040 --> 00:59:19,400 who's driven the exact same door car for probably 25 years. 992 00:59:20,160 --> 00:59:23,480 Give me Michael Pascal, who's probably one of the best 993 00:59:23,480 --> 00:59:27,200 dragster races out here in in North Carolina, and I think 994 00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:30,160 that's a toss up because they both know the car. 995 00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:32,920 Yeah, but give me the same person. 996 00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:37,080 Give me a person who we know drives each side. 997 00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:40,480 Anybody who can do it. I, I can't really name right off 998 00:59:40,480 --> 00:59:43,800 the top of my head. Give me Troy Williams, put Troy, 999 00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:47,640 put Troy in Big Red, and put Troy in the FTI Dragster. 1000 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:51,000 I'd take him in the dragster over himself every day. 1001 00:59:51,480 --> 00:59:56,120 In the in the truck. No, I take, I would take Troy in 1002 00:59:56,120 --> 00:59:59,200 the dragster versus himself in the truck every single day. 1003 00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:02,200 But but isn't that giving an edge to the dragster? 1004 01:00:03,600 --> 01:00:07,280 Giving an edge to I think Troy's better in the dragster, but you 1005 01:00:07,280 --> 01:00:09,720 put now think about this. So think about this, think about 1006 01:00:09,720 --> 01:00:13,040 his brother think about his brother right in the boss lady 1007 01:00:13,040 --> 01:00:15,840 Camaro. Do you think Gary is any less of 1008 01:00:15,840 --> 01:00:18,400 a driver in the Camaro than he is in the dragster? 1009 01:00:18,400 --> 01:00:19,880 Because I don't think so. I think he's the. 1010 01:00:19,920 --> 01:00:21,440 Same. Yeah, I think. 1011 01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:24,560 He he, but do you think? But Donovan in the dragster 1012 01:00:24,560 --> 01:00:27,000 versus the red truck? I think Donovan's better in the 1013 01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:28,560 dragster. I ain't never seen him in the 1014 01:00:28,560 --> 01:00:30,400 red truck. Maybe I just think he ain't no 1015 01:00:30,400 --> 01:00:32,440 attention. Gage is. 1016 01:00:33,120 --> 01:00:35,600 I've never seen him in a dragster but I bet you he's one 1017 01:00:35,600 --> 01:00:37,320 of the best door car drivers ever lived. 1018 01:00:37,320 --> 01:00:40,840 Matt Dadis far better in the door car than the dragster. 1019 01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:44,560 Wait a minute, because I need to see Gage in a dragster, and if 1020 01:00:44,560 --> 01:00:48,280 he wins the way he wins in a door car, I'm OK to say he might 1021 01:00:48,280 --> 01:00:50,120 be the greatest racer. In the. 1022 01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:53,120 Planet right now, period. All right, but. 1023 01:00:56,200 --> 01:00:58,680 Somebody. Somebody who's for sure one of 1024 01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:01,920 the greatest of all time, Peter Biondo in a dragster versus a 1025 01:01:01,920 --> 01:01:03,760 door car. I think he's going to win the 1026 01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:06,640 same amount in either one. I'm taking Pete in a door car. 1027 01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:09,360 I'm taking Pete in a. Door car I'm taking, I'm taking 1028 01:01:09,360 --> 01:01:14,120 him in either. I don't know that I don't know 1029 01:01:14,120 --> 01:01:17,120 that Peter Biondo in a door car is any better than Peter Biondo 1030 01:01:17,120 --> 01:01:18,960 in a dragster. I think they are the same. 1031 01:01:19,520 --> 01:01:21,720 You think he's Eagle? There are a few that way. 1032 01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:25,760 There's very few that Nick folk. Nick folk might be the same way, 1033 01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:27,640 right? I think Nick Folk in the Cobalt 1034 01:01:27,640 --> 01:01:29,240 just good as Nick Folk in the dragster. 1035 01:01:29,400 --> 01:01:32,560 Interesting, interesting now, man. 1036 01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:37,560 So, so anyway, that's how we're trying to figure out kind of the 1037 01:01:37,600 --> 01:01:43,040 age-old debate of bracket racing, What Car has the 1038 01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:45,920 advantage. Definitely appreciate you guys 1039 01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:48,120 chiming in. I got one more. 1040 01:01:48,320 --> 01:01:50,240 Go ahead, Casey, got one more.
