When your talking NHRA, the limiting factor is traction, not power. If you have 105F ambient temps with 200F Aspalt, you get incredible traction. If you're only making 7,200 hp in that condition vs. 8,000 hp on a track with 65F asphalt, you'll pull a very low ET even though your trap speed is low. On a 332 hp car in those conditions, making 298 hp will kill your ET and trap because traction was never a (big) problem. (I used 90% of max power in both calculations).
