Having been to numerous ADRL races (and competing this year in Pro Extreme Motorcycle as a crew member) there is no need to run these in the 1/4. More money, more parts, and would cause more crashes than there already are. These cars are insane and more of a handful to drive than a funny car due to less downforce. No minimum weight, turbo, or supercharged with 70% overdrive, and up to 50% nitro allowed (The NHRA caused this rule because most of the races are at NHRA tracks).
Our Pro Extreme Bikes have no minimum weight, no nitrous limit, no max CC's, and an 11" tire. We are running an 1800cc suzuki. Our best past testing was a 4.21 on a conservative tune at 178mph.
If you ever get a chance to see an ADRL race in person DO IT! You will foget about 1/4 mile and will not be disappointed.
