I want to do drag week if I ever get to point I can.
My last car was almost 2 sec slower but I always drove the 40+ miles to track one way. Raced often for 10 years and only needed trailered home once.(starter blew up as I was about to head to 3rd round late on a Sunday) Was easier to call a friend at that point than get a starter and change it in the dark (by time I got one plus dirt etc.). Another time wished I had trailered was when a collector flange broke off(on drivers side no less) when I left track. When it broke exhaust tipped and shortly after the reducer caught something and bent pipe enough that I couldnt rig anything to even partially reconnect. Had no idea how many little hills the road home had till then(and seemed more up hill than down). Plus the heat coming up from floor and it was a hot muggy day. Radio sounded like crap, traffic was slow and seemed I stopped at every light.
