Me and this guy are in the same boat. Seen too many friends blow trannys or rearends trying to launch hard.. I agree on the getting pulled over part too cause ive seen that happen before

roll racing is a pretty good way to see who has more power. dig racing shows who has more traction.

If you don't like roll racing then you best bet is to go to the track where people have to race ya from a dig. I do agree...Roll racing is for Neons....but I do it in my camaro mainly because I can't find to many cars on the street who want to dig race my car that 60's high 1.5 on a all season street tire.

Roll racing dosent show who has more horsepower. My truck has more horsepower then most mustangs but since I weigh so much it. See where I'm going with this

I'll do both no problem but would rather go from a dig whenever possible. I like to take advantage of my 4hi nitrous launches. Lol

Roll racing is an excuse for lack of traction. Do you roll race at the track too? Racing is always done from a stand. Yes, I've rolled
