Usually if something is performing far above the norm, it isn't the norm. You're comparing one of the fastest cars as the norm. To be honest, I'm not sure why I'm even bothering as you will continue to do so.
Not everybody wants to drop $6k on a drag wheel and conversion setup like Martin did
If you're going to try to sneak an insult in there, of which I didn't insult you in my original post, you might want to actually use the correct form of "too"
It really helps you not look stupid

62 went 10s before that 6k he dropped to go faster.
The only one looking stupid here is you......and it's very obvious.
Lol....yup
That said the 408 car was done 8-10 yrs ago and the guy absolutely loves it. It's instant on, has a tight converter so it feels responsive and has a pretty small cam. It has a iron block so it's heavier than stock and has never been on a dyno or drag strip. A drag car wasn't the goal there.
With where things are today it would be very easy to do a cam only car to run with it. Being ignorant of these advancements is where i have a problem with people.
Did you do it with a nitrous spec converter, nitrous tune and 3500lbs at the same track in the same da??? NO? That's sooo weird.
I think those might be older times too, he said he thinks it could go high 9's this year on the spray. It went 10.4 with the nitrous line just pushed into a drilled hole in the intake boot when he got the car. He has since done a plate and taken some more weight out of the car since it ran.

It should run 9s on spray. I have a gmhtp laying around somewhere that has a bolt on ls1 and some spray that ran 9s.
A good read article for TROOFS!

I'll give you another example. I ran a guy at the track who wouldn't even answer how big his engine was. All he would say is it's big......big with a super charger. He looked at the back of a bolt on ls6 camaro all the way down the track. Was it proper?
My car has less holes than you guys cry.
Hio way works.....sure keeps this bunch in a tissy.

It would be like someone pm'ing you to make their car fast. Why would they do that when they can pm hammer, Redbird, darth, vetteboy or myself and there are others doin well also.

You can always just pay attention to the bottom of the list and hang out therefor the "norm" if you like i suppose.
But I'm lookin for the top of the "list" for my "norm" and there is no reason others shouldn't either......unless stupid

Martin has said himself that his car isn't simple and has a lot into it.
Your average Joe simply isn't going to drop $6k on a wheel conversion package. If that makes people "stupid", then I guess everybody is stupid in your world except you and a select few and 99% of the people on this very SRK section are stupid as well.

To each their own. To call others stupid and belittle them just because they aren't at the top of the list is a douchebag move either way.

Again.....it is ok for you to be mediocre. I'm sure your pm's are full of mediocre.
I'm not belittling no one. But stupid is as stupid does.

So basically your setup when you were running 11s was dog **** since you weren't running 10s at the time?
