Default AP1 vs. AP2 on the drag strip...

The race settings:


Same tires
Same day
Same time
Same weight driver
Switching drivers every race (so as to not bias with skill)
Switching lanes every other race...


I'm talking COMPLETELY STOCK (except the exact same tires on both)...

I'm mean just as it is from the factory, not so much as clear side markers..

I DO NOT CARE ABOUT HP, WHP, BHP, DRIVERS HAIR COLOR, SONG ON THE RADIO, OR WTF EVER EXCUSES THERE MAY BE... I JUST WANT AN ANSWER. Obviously both cars in PERFECT condition so as also not to bias this.


Who would win the completely stock race with 10 trials.... An AP1 or AP2?


And btw, I have searched for this.... came up with nothing useful

Looks like its time for two of you guys to head to a drag strip, perform the experiment, and take a video for the rest of us to watch!

This is a perfect world scenerio so yes, they are in pristine condition
how would anyone ever know? All of your criteria above are possible, but this one is not. you lost your control over the experiment.

results: inconclusive.
