I'm taking a look at my 10.89 second 1/4 timeslip. I hit the 1/8 mile in 7 seconds, at ~100mph. The 1/4 was finished in 10.89 @ ~126. So by your logic, it took my 10 second car 7 seconds to get to 100mph, and 4 seconds to go from 100-126mph.

Now let's compare that to an R1 timeslip. One of the seemingly average slips I found was a 10.40@ 133.82mph. He passed through the 1/8 in 6.3837 seconds at 116.32 mph. It then took him 4 seconds to go an additional 18mph.

So my 10 second car gains 26mph in 4 seconds, while his bike only achieves 18mph ... HOWEVER, his bike is also starting 16mph ahead of my car, which needs to be incorporated. I believe it would be safe to assume that the difference in acceleration between the 2 would be insignificant from 100-130mph (meaning they would run pretty much dead even). From 130+, my car would start to have the edge.


So that's my 10 second car, which would have it's hands full with an R1 from a dig, and run real close from a high speed roll. Now explain to me how your 12.8 second stock Z06 is going to compete with that? Even if you COULD race to 160-170mph, there is no way you would be able to make up the buslength(s) he put on you from 60-130ish (unless maybe, he was doing a wheelie??)

??? I was showing that his method of figuring out who will be faster from a roll is flawed. Obviously you missed that.


So you disagree with me?? You believe a stock 02 Z06 is going to beat an R1??

Good stuff.
