However in the 28 year history of the Midwest Super comp Series the same 155MPH (slow) Small block super comp dragster has won 5 championships (3 with original owner& 2 in a row for the current owner)
So being the fast guy might be overrated.

That's impressive,I have seen guys run 180mph in that class. its hard to judge the stripe when you are 30mph faster then your opponent.
