Pros and cons between turbo and supercharging

And the quickest cars on the planet are supercharged... So what?

It's a moot point because the NHRA rulebook specifically outlaws turbochargers in the Fuel classes, and has for years.

The Flowrite-sponsored team of Gordie Bonin and Jerry VerHuel ran a twin-turbo, FUEL funny car back in the eighties and because clutch and tire technolgy weren't up to the task, they only succeeded in blowing the tires off the car, run after run... too MUCH power to control at that time.

There has to be a reason NHRA won't let them run...:blob:
