Is there a point at which weight is an advantage?

I'm sorry if you feel that that means they were designed poorly Chad...you either didn't understand what I said or think that you know more about drag racing than the men who have been doing it for years.

maybe im insulting your intelligence saying this but i think Chad meant that the cars that benefit from that sort of thing in dragging benefit from it because they weren't engineered at the factory to maximize traction during a drag strip launch....not to say their overall design is flawed because they benefit from ballast. FWD cars immediately come to mind.
