Default 4th gen vs Foxbody. I dont understand.
Help me figure out his mystery. How is it that my buddy beat me by almost 5 tenths to the 60 but we went the same mph and I crushed his ET. I'm just not smart enough to understand. I think I'll gap the **** out of him.

I don't know what happend in the 60' on these passes, but on the street it's possible the cars could be a good race, what are the setups?

The foxbody is a mild 406 street car with a nitrous converter and the 4th gen is an LS6 powered race car.

"I don't understand"

That sums up the OP perfectly.

Seems like the slip on the right is a non driving **** who missed a gear....How do you go 1.26 and only run a 10.7 with 129 mph

About 3-4 tenths? That's sad for a 406.

Nitrous converters are all the rage. Like 2.73 gears.

Did the right slip get some sort of timing error to get that 1.2x 60'?
