1/4 mile in 3.641 seconds

For those who live in Utah, if you lived 1/4 mile from the grocery store and the store closes in 5 seconds, you have plenty of time.

Friday, during the first of two days of qualifying for the season-ending Auto Club Finals at Auto Club Raceway in Pomona, California, Brittany once again re-set the national speed record, bumping up her previous-best speed to 338.94 mph, at an elapsed time of 3.641 seconds.

Isn't top fuel 1000' now for safety reasons vs 1/4 mile?

Was never really a fan of racing until my neighbor (who works for a top fuel team) invited me to the Vegas races a few years back. The power is hard to explain when you stand close to them taking off! 1000 hp+ per cylinder! Insane

Those top fuel cars don't have anything on a Utah minivan running clear gas being driven by a thirties something soccer mom.
