Drag strip?

I would doubt many have. These cars are not stop light to stop light or drag cars. Many $20k cars with minor upgrades can smoke a Ferrari in the 1/4 mile

 

I agree - my 360 isn;t that fast off the line, but over 60 mph, it really starts to come into it's own, rock staedy and pulls hard through to over 120 mph (on a private road of course).

Ferrari's aren;t drag cars the same as top fuel dragsters can't take corners.

 

see the below link for performance

360 - 12.7 sec for 1/4 mile.

What the heck happened? He was not going that fast to lose control.

In terms of serious street/drag cars, the 360 is pretty slow. As mentioned, there are many street cars out there that can smoke it with $1500 worth of upgrades. My Mitsubishi with an after market exhaust, turbo and intercooler could smoke a 360 off the line.

The 360 shines on the track. Trying to turn it into a drag car will leave you embarrassed and probably with some pretty expensive drivetrain repairs.

Those are all fairly respectable times for a production vehicle on street tires.
