Acceleration put into perspective

WOW ... this may be one of the funnyest threads i've ever read ... somebody comes up with a way to try and describe the power of a AA/F dragster and everybody gets their shorts in a knot because its dissing corvettes and 747's lol

Of course those aren't very fair or very good comparisons, because they were never ment to be comparisons!! They were ment to be points of reference, to make it easier to grasp how much power and acceleration you can cram into a little package.
