I've done both, now. I know that when I first took my car out on the drag strip, I was getting 16.8. After awhile I was getting down in the 15.0's. That's a 1.8 second drop with a little skill added in.

Auto-x, since it changes every month, is a bit harder to guage, but I know that first month I dropped quite a bit of time (not counting the stall at the middle of the u-turn) from my first to last.

All that being said, both take a lot of skill. However, 4 passes (plus 1 or 2 fun runs) is all you get to prcatice with Auto-x EACH MONTH. I can drag every weekend at least 4 passes a night.

They both take skill. Lots of it.

It's conveniently located on Wheeler Army Airfield. Someone with a military ID card would have to sign you in.
