dragging a contour is like using a camera for a hammer, it works, but not well, and when you are done something is broken.  THIS JUST IN....contours arent fast.

we all know this, honestly, taking a contour to a track is almost pointless, yeah, I think it would be a fun experience, but there really isnt anything to brag about.... What the contour REALLY is meant to do is take corners.

Shut up.  Like Dukeofsho said, it's for FUN! Who gives a sh!t if it's the fastest car there? And unless you've actually raced on a dragstrip, your comments are as useless as a manual flusher on a public urinal.
