I'd blame it on all the ragged out T&T cars that don't have any business being out on the track in the first place.

ive blown a motor in the left, burned up a tec in the right.....

ran the bests in the left and right too. I HATE the dip on the right lane at the 1000 foot mark. it fucks my drag car really bad when i'm going nearly 120mph

its all track prep and driver whether something breaks, slips, or grips.

Most of my best times have always been in the left lane also.
