Sorry Clone, gotta clarify this a little. The light or reaction time has nothing to do with your 1/4 mile time. A bad light will cost you a race though. The launch and subsequent 60ft will absolutely have a big effect on overall time.

Re: Down side to having a boosted VW...
I gave up street racing back in my 20's (I'm 38 now). I might "play" with other drivers every now and again, but no racing.
As far as my engine goes, Its built! The most I'll do to it is replace the 043 heads with something better flowing, but other than that it's done.

They don’t have a bracket class at your local track?
