The only place I'd like to meet Rich is in a dark alley or in a cage.

Like to make him cry.

Probably as stupid as the other shows.

A good drag racer will know how to DE-Tune his car. Then after each race can adjust simple things to increase speed / decrease time. So just start with a horrible adjusted car - but be aware of what each adjustment improves.

Air pressure in tires
Timing
Shock settings
Suspension settings
Shift RPM's


Then the driving skills of pedal play - shifting early or too late -
