Default why is it

Why is it that some guys are trapping slow than me in the quarter but have low e.t.'s? Could it be because of the 60ft times and DRs or something else? The car doesn't spin at all coming off the line. My reaction times are sub .560 every pass. The car has run a best of 13.20 @ almost 109 (108.8) with a 2.07 60 ft. Please help with this one guys.

mine is 1.8 13.1@ 105...who knows. some ppl think its a big deal but , however crosses the line first is the faster (imo) but i guess the trap speed is the difference between quick and fast

mph is the horsepower your car is making the higher the mph the more horsepower you have, ET is how efficiently you put that horsepower to the ground. what are your 60 foots compared to other peoples times, also do they have a converter (more efficient means of putting that horsepower down), i am sure most of it is in your 60 foot due to being and automatic and not having to worry about hitting the shift points

most of them have a converter and are in the sub 2.0 range for 60ft times. But I see what you are saying.

Thanks,
Kyle
