how does 1000' racing effect PS/PSM

[82GT]

Has anyone asked the Pro Stock drivers how the 1000' racing in Top Fuel and Funny Car effects them? You would think without them putting rubber down the last 320’ it might cause issues with the top end?

maybe but there are enough other classes still going the full 1/4 so it shoulnd't matter that much.

I suppose on a big rain on Sunday when less cars are going the full distance to put down new it could make it an issue

I rather doubt that spinning the tires past 1000 ft. with pro stock cars or bikes should be a problem.

You obviously don't understand pro stock cars. They can, and do, spin the tires well past the 1000' foot mark. It's called down force, and they don't have much of it! That 13" wing with the little wicker doesn't produce much down force.
