Oops, I didn't realize there are two different lists. I linked the one in the "fastest list" from the stickies.

Thanks Marc!
Ever hear of guys called Galileo, Newton & Einstein? Well they created laws we refer to as physics which govern mass and energy. Ironically, these laws apply to just about everything but a lucky few.

I have no doubt the car runs the times you indicate. However, based on laws of physics and the power-level you're at it's just not possible to generate sufficient G's to propel that mass at that speed in 1320 feet.

Btw, I have a bridge connecting Fort Lee, NJ to Manhattan I'm selling at a great price. Let me know if you're interested.

Cheers Fellas...

Here we go with the physics class. Yes, I'm very aware of who they were. You cannot always apply their rules to drag racing though. There are more factors than just mass and simple acceleration. The car will leave alot harder depending how it's set up. It will launch considerably harder with a stall converter compared to a stock converter, gearing, Density Altitude, etc. Have you viewed the stock internals list yet? Have you ever heard of something Called Density Altitude? Sounds like you need more experience in the racing field my friend.

before you go on, check this list. Are you saying everyone on this list is a liar bc of something you googled about Newton's & Einstein's laws?

Nice times and great 60', makes me want to pull some weight and get some skinnies and see how far I can go S.I. I'll never touch your times, but love seeing stock internal cars run a good number.

I'm sure plenty are mad that you run faster than their cam only or h/c/i/e cars. Hell if mine doesn't run faster ill be one of them lol

Yeah I was going to say, we were pretty close when we ran against each other back in Nov 2011. Get a converter similar to mine greg

LOL just saw this!
But we all know da has alot to do with how good times are at the track. My 2 11.9 passes were in -187 da. Maybe could of pulled off 11.7s if we had the typical -1000 da for around here but didnt. Oh well im just glad the car broke 11s stock internal.

Now the really good news is its time to test out my new h c i 3.73 setup

OP I want the da you had when almost 10s!

Oh I know all too well how much DA plays a role in track times. We get decent DA here in the Bay Area. Hopefully I can have my car running well once Nov hits to get my best times.

Then I'm going to restall my SS3600 to a SS4000 or a PT 4000....

Yea get that car running for nov man

I wanted a pt4000 for my first stall but was scared of it on the street. Right now im glad I did the ss3600. Im trying to get used to the new h c i 3.73 setup on my car and wow its unreal. Cant imagine having a 4k converter right now lol

Yea the pinion gear ate a tooth on my 3.73s & I put another 10 bolt in but it has 2.73s (fail). I don't know if I should do a 3.73 swap or buy a 12 bolt.

I look forward to seeing your track times. Your car runs hard.

even though our cars arent identical in weight, etc. The nature of the beasts are similar with the LS1 and auto trans. i managed to drop over 1 tenth off my 60' and over 2 tenths off my 1/4mile going from a 3400 to a 4000-4200 converter. Come out to a CI meet sometime and I'll let you see how the car drives with it

sweet ron! i cant wait to see what itll do come late fall/winter. im a huge Circle D fan as well. my 3400 stall is perfect for my set-up. thanks chris

btw, wheres my thanks in the vid for pickin up ur fluid and driving across the state to help swap the converter? lol jk

Btw, I have a bridge connecting Fort Lee, NJ to Manhattan I'm selling at a great price. Let me know if you're interested.

They also said it was impossible to do a backflip on a dirtbike.... Tell Travis pastrana he's not supposed be doing double back flips on a dirt bike in competition at the x- games.
