That is about the dumbest thing I've read all week.

Next time you see your riceboy Spec-v friend, smack him for running without a hood on. I mean hell, why not yank the trunk lid too if he wants to look rediculous.

It's at the track and only at the track. (That's where you get the 1/8 mile times.) The point of running at a drag strip is to see how good of times you can get which is what he did (and what all the other people there do). At a non-nhra sanctioned event, this is allowed among many other things and is perfectly fine since you're just seeing how fast you can go. I guess if he added nitrous and used it to get faster times, that would be stupid too.
