I suppose that could be true but do we drag raced and not race in a circle? I could not make this person understand with a wing the corner speed is much faster thus the straightaway speed is greater....
I guess the saying...."you can lead a horse to water but you sure as hell can not make him drink".....is true
Just wanted to give my fellow non wing fans a laugh today!!!

a non wing car is faster on the straightaway!!!!!!!!!! We raced springfield silver crown and woo sprints the same day ill highway patrol had aradar gun on every car! And the silver crown cars where 15 mph faster on the straightaway and the woo cars where 3 sec faster a lap!
