need to know the speed. at 60 miles an hour you are going 1 mile aminute dived the mile by 60 secounds and you have about 7 car lengths at 30 mph 3.5 car lenghts and at 120mph 14 car lengths. so the faster you go the more car lengths between car lengths are need for saftey.

Drag racing is a little different situation since the cars are still accelerating, not maintaining a steady speed like on the highway. If one car is more powerful than the other, it's unlikely that they will have equal trap speeds in the quarter-mile.
