Jim,
Tom, is doing an engineer study for playing "Chicken".

Please don't confuse him with facts about a drag race. Like two car go down the track at the same time in the same direction but in different lanes. Then he might want to see if there is a tractive force difference between the two lanes.

Interesting though, that international (FIA) acceleration records require two-way runs! [Or at least they did for a long time; perhaps they've changed the rules by now]
