yes power to weight ratio applies if the human aspect is not in the situation. when you are going from a stop power to weight ratio means practically nothing if one of the two drivers can't operate the vehicle properly. when the human shift's with a small time period inbetween shifts the power to weight ratio factor decreases in our "street car horse power" class.
yes actualyl there are lots of cars that daily drive on slicks. but who needs slicks. there are some sticky tires out there.
