since there seem's to be a debate about what driving SKILL is we will dicuss it...
I'm not sayin auto -x ,road,nascar are easy drive's but drag racing is just not hitting the gas and going strait..
Try doing your auto -x in a rear drive car(one with power not your uncles 82 corolla), not a all wheel drive or front drive car.....it's all about the limit's of the car and driver skill.
I'd like to see one of you guy's launch my car on the street with out pissing yourself...

I've driven a couple cars that fast. All I had to do was stomp the gas and steer straight, that's it. I drove a Viper once, try making a corner at good speeds with one, those cars take serious skill to control, I could barely do it. There's a couple Mustangs that come to autocross that would be as fast as yours in the 1/4, come try to drive them through the cones!

I use to race in IRL(even if i was as good as they told me) ...I don't like it.....i love drag racing, where else can you go 200mph(from a dead stop) in a 1/4 of a mile. no where!
p.s. you'll be hard pressed to get one of those mustang's in the 10's on the drag strip!

I know theyre both pushing over 500hp, the one is a national championship car. You should know first hand then that in some IRL races the cars start on the straight and launch to over 200mph and then take corners. To each his own I guess, you want to see skills then watch WRC. Try taking a car with 1 set of tires on multiple surfaces around corners at 100+ mph along cliff sides and such, that takes more skill than any kind of racing!!

Yep, 100mph sideways around curves along cliff sides takes some big balls!
