Actually, the two brother's at Waterfest with their type 44 10VTQ's had
some pretty quick and impressive cars, i.e. 14 second posts at 98 on what
they said was a slippery track (they weren't on their slicks) so they
were getting solid chirps even in second and they said they've gotten
them in 3rd. Of course the revs they make before launch seem ridiculous
(i.e. like a bad AM radio version of the start of an F1 race), and it
definitely leaves a totally different impression than that 'Murican iron.
