If I say hay lets race to the top of the hill and you agree it doesn't matter if the top of the hill is 1320 feet away or 2 miles away because that was the point we agreed to race to and the one who gets there first is the winner.
and thats how its always been!(i've lost count of how many
1\8mile streetraces i've seen)
if 1320 is that big of a deal then he should be bring his own certified measuring wheel. (i have seen it done) before the race
1369.7 feet

thats about as close as your going to get on the street. you want better read fordman's post about taking to to the track
