i don't see the point of bringing in custom drag cars to this discussion that will never ever see anything other than a drag strip, they're cool and all, but i will never be super impressed by a car that can do one thing and one thing only >_<... when cars like the AMS GT-R exist.. or heck, any number of street cars that will do 10s or lower passes (arguably) street legally.
No for any drag car. Drag racers would laugh themselves sick at the idea of an IRS car that weighs 4,000 lbs! Why take a knife to a gun fight?

30" tall dude, 30" TALL!

I don't know you but maybe you don't see the point because your experience in drag racing is limited? Get out there often and you'll start to see my point :-) Our cars are shit slow at the drag strip.

There are VERY FEW street cars that can run "10s or lower passes" street legally. I share your love of AMS R35 GTRs!
