As much as many people like to hate on roll racing... it really is the best way to isolate a cars power-to-weight for a race. Starting high enough, you can disregard nearly all of the massive variables contributed by tires, suspension, grip, driver experience, and more. Even the 1/4 mile is a tough judge unless the car gets a really clean pass... and good luck finding anyone with a high power 370z that is willing to say they are satisfied with their best 1/4 pass. Youre either wheel hopping for 200 feet, burning tires for 150, or banging the rev limiter in 4th 100 feet shy, assuming you didnt screw up the 1-2 shift that comes up in what feels like the first 12 feet with the all-motor 300hp style gearing.
