It wouldn't matter if it was 15 times faster.
It's a race car with an engine life that's measured in minutes.
You can't drive it on the street.
It won't go around a corner.
It won't stop without a parachute.
It won't run in the rain.
It could be driven by a well-programmed robot.
Or how about another comparison:
And it is not "faster," it is "quicker."
Your dragster is slower than many cars that run at Bonneville or Black Rock Desert. The fast ones there break the sound barrier. Acceleration is only part of the game.
A AA fuelie is not a real car. It's a Hot Wheels toy.
Let's just say we disagree on this. A buddy of mine and I pick this bone all the time. It's fun!
Tell ya what. Let's do 50 laps at Indy between a AA dragster and a Prius. Maybe even 10 laps. See who wins.
