Perfect example here this particular vette when it made 373rwhp went 12.50 at 115 but beat 2 heads cam fbodys that i know for a fact are great drivers from a roll....key word being "roll". This particular vette also when it trapped 115 beat another vette that runs consistent 120-121 mph and then backed it up by racing him again and running door to door all the way to 160? How does that happen? Its the street and anything can happen. And vettes are absolutely amazing from a roll. I cant even remember how many cars ive beat that ran a better et and had more mph.....in this case....he beat me and there is a good chance i will run faster at the track.
He understands that he's seen me run terrible times at the track lol and still run fine from a roll. I'll try and disprove the trap speed thing to him by letting him take my car down the drag strip and show it'll trap alot higher than what I've done just from a good launch compared to my terrible ones haha
They do once you go 140+

Limiter as you know on cf theres
A guy with 07 ls2 m6 with just bolt ons and a 3.90 diff ran a 11.2 with tire mod.. He can bang gears and it just let's you know what the ls2 c6 could do. I know there's a lot
Of factors when drag racing.. This car maybe 400hpish I would reckon and gears

Yep.....changed from 4.11 and the car went faster. I don't think 3.73's would hurt it any. Actually when the ls7 goes in I will probably run 3.73'sonce it is sorted out. Gear is a tuning tool. If you rely on gear to make your car quick/fast then you simply don't have enough motor......or you have a real narrow power band and tq that sucks.

Well no kidding lol, obviously the more power the less gear you need. Alot of gear and high hp = spin fest. So obviously you gear your car according to your power levels.
