dragster

There was an electric dragster, the Lead Wedge, in 1969.[1] It was really crude but performed OK.

My amateur understanding is that this is essentially a compromise between road car and dragster, optimized for straights and low-speed cornering.

This would be like trying to get Geico to cover a top fuel dragster.

Racing towards an unknown horizon in a nitrous powered dragster surrounded by fire tornadoes.

Just positioning that dragster statically down a dragstrip and taking a picture every few feet won't show you the essence of what's happening.

But so does a top fuel dragster, and neither is a sports car.

Apple figured out pretty soon that a laptop doesn't need to be a dragster or M1 Abrams, it needs to be a Volvo.

I still think this doesn't offer the same level of dynamism of dragster, where you could easily design branching/conditional workflows.

In the dragster case, we don't have anything like video proof of the supposed record.

It's a slow-motion video of a topfuel dragster.

When you're drafting a dragster so close you're partly inside it I'm going to go ahead and say that doesn't count for my question.

Something like dragster + dlt and sling.

A visual is a “twisting effect” of what happens with a dragster’s tires when a driver peels out, he said.

This being said, I’ve noticed that many a “big EV” driver will take off from red lights like they’re driving a dragster.

There's a few other particularly suspect high scores that were purged from Twin Galaxies; notably Todd Rodgers' literally impossible time on 2600 Dragster.

That said, I did see an Atari 2600 console verified TAS for Dragster, so there must be a way to sync.

Anyhow, I wonder how much the degraded components would affect Donkey Kong and whether similar degradation could account for Todd Roger's record for Dragster.
