Man, that thing pulled away. It must be making some damn good power for a speed like that, too.
Needs driver mod and a real launch. Then, you'll be in the low 10's at least. That is a 9-second trap speed you have there.

That's a wicked car. It looks like it's in street trim too.

I would say his reason for leaving soft was more due to the tire than being scared of breaking something. Maybe you can give him some launching lessons, you seem to have some impressive E.T.s under your belt.

Ahhh, the internet fool that has no idea what he is talking about. How exactly do you get an accurate trap speed through the 1/4 mile off of a dyno? Dynoes measure torque and hp, not E.T. and trap speed, Mr. 1.96 60 ft.

car like that? You don't even have enough power to break anything.
Do you understand what it takes to get that kind of power down on
a tire with very little sidewall...particularly in a Corvette? Take off your
blinders and stop being an internet babbler.
BTW, trap speed is a calculation over the last 66 feet of the track.

I agree there's probably more in it, but damn to not destroy that thin wall tire i give major props! Just because someone is looking for a # on the track doesn't mean they have to cut a light on the tree,

I've been 10s on an 18" tire, so it's not that hard.

You really need to find something else to do, being half retarded shouldn't be your full time occupation. There are way too many variables to get an accurate 1/4 mile E.T. off of a dyno. Launch (1.4 60 ft vs 2.0 60 ft, ie), weather, track prep, tires (if different then the ones used to dyno.), and wind speed and direction are some of the variables.

The dyno told me I would run 11.0 @ 125. I went 10.9 @ 124. Sound fairly accurate to me

a dyno for ET's is hysterical.
