You guys are to funny. I guess you 2 are just so used to Heads up racing. A "Car Length" is Not an automatic unit of distance, It depends on the length of the car that is Getting the advantage.My Car is 17 feet long,so for me, 1 car length is 17 feet,BUT,VERY few actually measure the car and then take out a wheel and use it to measure,But I have seen it done, Not to measure Car Lengths, perse,but just a "Distance in feet" advantage.Car A sits at the start,Car B is Moved out in Car Lengths by 1 or 2 people(not pushing) but to make sure it is Fair. Car lengths are done in 2 ways Only!.. Back Bumper(Car B) even with front bumper(Car A) OR Back wheel(Car B)even with Front wheel (CAR B).Very easy to set up this race. If everyone knows what is going on, it takes 2 min after the cars are lined up EVEN.SO, for ME, 5 lengths would be an advantage of 85 feet,17 x 5 = 85,which for my ET is Not very much.
