Why is it that nobody on there can make it past the 1/8th....much less the 60' mark?

What is the thing the spotters are touching on the back of the cars?

That GN must be sporting a hell of a turbo if it is barely making boost during burnout. Found out...94mm (141mm exducer -- 1600+HP capable) Turbo...best 1/4 mile pass 7.77 @ 181mph!

1500 plus HP is a real eye opener. You have no idea - I have had a shitload of "fast" 12/11/10 second cars and was stunned when I went down to pick up my Viper by how hard it was to get it down the track. Its a whole different ball game above 1000 HP let alone 1500 on cars without enough tire. The tires blow off like on a top fuel dragster - its instantaneous when it happens and pretty scarey when the car starts going various directions other than straight...
