Drag race tires in contact with an asphalt surface probably have one of the higher coefficients of static friction in the everyday world. Assuming a constant acceleration and no slipping of tires estimate the coefficient of static friction for a drag racer that covers the quarter mile in 6.0s

f = m a

μ m g = m (d / t²)

μ = (d / t²) / g = (1320 / 6²) / 32

the assumption is that all of the mass acts on the driving wheels
