Message	Assuming stock power for both situations, the ds would be more likely to break at the strip, although not so probable in happening except for the csb. There's also the greater risk of oil starvation and/or car collision on a road course. I'm sure we could go back and forth debating the pro's and con's :) The one time I did do a mild road course however, it definitely was a blast. But I still love the drag strip. 1990 Nissan 300ZXTT Stage III+ Pure sports car, 100% daily driven (dry/rain/snow)
