Why are people scared of the drag strip?

There isn't a track within hundreds of miles of me that isn't 100+ degrees by 9 am for one.
I have completely the wrong setup for 1/8 or 1/4 mile.
Give me a mile.:D

I understand that. I live in the south and the heat and humidity can be stifling. Sitting in the staging lanes is almost unbearable. Most tracks around here are 1/8 mile. I have to go over 100 miles to the nearest 1/4 mile track. My car is set up for street driving, which lends itself more to the 1/4 mile.
