Only made it about 10 seconds in before realizing it was Rob Dahm... Absolutely can't stand listening to him... That is a bit perplexing why it would be slower than 1/4 trap speeds. Maybe it's because getting a legitimate 1/2 mile setup to even attempt it is much more difficult similar to how Bugatti will be almost impossible to beat the sustained MPH record since they own the largest test oval on the planet

It is definitely less competitive. There is also a lot less traction so unless you are awd you aren't going to hook for a few gears. A 2000hp rwd mustang on big slicks ran 199mph. A 9 second mustang ran a 168. Also most quarter mile cars have gearing helping them, which will hurt you here.
The biggest win here is not blowing the engine. Most rotary guys who attempt this grendade.
Rob and I are already ordering more parts for the next race....Don't forget this was our 2nd pass, it's only the start....
