[DeTomaso] NPC--drag racing question

[Dick Koch]

Chuck, are you sure it was a quarter mile instead of an eighth mile 
track.  I have some friends that do the Outlaw racing circuit that runs 
on an eighth mile track.  That time and speed seem consistent with the 
shorter track.  However, the top speed seems like it may be a little slow.
