| I can't remember the exact name. Cars do several runs then then argue who many car lengths to handicap the slower car who are suppose to be very similar mods. On one show, one guy had too short of a gear in his domestic that he hit redline before the end of the quarter mile. When he did the other car over took him. The guy with the shorter gear claimed he had his gear calculated to top out at 1/4 mile mark. Any further and he couldn't go faster or accelerate faster. Your red line and torque curve have to be taken into consideration. When you up shift you want your rpm to remain in your torque range. This is most critical on turbo cars.
