Talking Making that kind of power shocks the tires more than a N/A powered car

I have to agree with you on it being over rated, but when you make big power it is really dangerous. Shocking the tires is what breaks traction so with clutchless trans you keep the tires planted on the ground for the entire pass.

Just my opinion.
