Who would win in the quarter mile? How about the 100 mile? :eek:

Car hands down for both.

Dragsters often pull 1 G or more. Steam locos not even remotely close.

Distance wise you might think fuel capacity would be the limiting factor but no - water for the loco would be. I read somewhere (years ago) a steam loco uses about 3 times as much water per mile as fuel.

Nice photo tho.

That guy has too much money on his hands. I'm sitting on your everyday couch, except with evidence of cats scratching on the armrests.
