Default question about quarter mile times...

say you're at someones rear bumper when you both cross the quarter mile mark, how much slower is the person at the rear bumper. Like .1 second slower? J/W because my friend's taurus beat me by that much.

why isn't his time on the slip? And also if you have no slip you have no idea what the reaction time discrpeancy is...

surprised you lost in the first place. Prelude's usually run quicker than SHO's do in the traps. don't they? im not sure but i think they do.

it wasnt at a track. maybe i just suck at driving. its a 5 speed and the sho's a 5 speed. The sho's are mid 14's to low 15 second cars, atleast that's what i've "heard." But stats dont mean **** when you can't drive, but hopefully that aint the case. The taurus' are like 220 hp(?) 200 trq, but heavy as ****. Felt like a beast when i drove it
