John, I can only relate to drag racing, you guys are the LSR Guru's. A long
wheelbase dragster is definitely more stable and easier to keep straight than
a short wheelbase car- example, Top Fuel vs Fuel Altered or Funny Car. I think
because most all the lakesters and streamliners that are fast are usually a
very long wheelbase that is the way to go. But this is only my opinion and you
know what that is worth.

Don't remember if this has been asked before or not so I hope I'm not beating
a dead horse.
What is the effect of wheelbase on vehicle speed. Another words are long
wheelbase cars inherently more stable than short ones? What are the
advantages
or disadvantages?
