I think racing the 1/4 mile is boring. Maybe it's because my stocker is slow, maybe it's because I have ADD or maybe it's just because we do so much 1/8th mile around here. I like the fact that you don't beat on your stuff as much in the 1/8th. I love the fact that something is always going on inside the car in the 1/8th mile. I personally believe the 1/8th mile is safer, simply due to lower speeds.

Don't get me wrong, I don't mind a 1/4 mile race every few months, but I'll take 1/8th mile for Stock Eliminator. Anyone that says 1/8th mile racing is boring simply doesn't have a legit excuse for not liking it.
