No one is saying these are hard rules and nothing else can happen. lol

But typically mph goes up with a worse 60ft.

Example:
My cobro, me driving, same toon up both passes from SCSN last year.



PS. Hammer's mph went up with a worse 60ft as well on his last track visit.

I don't think anyone is saying that myth that you always preach can't happen either.

Fact is you could go around and cherry pick myths like that and find evidence to back up any of them.

Thus making them all just myths.

So you don't know what "typical" means. Sweet.

My car does it a lot and Hammer's car has also done it *** well. You barely race or know english so you really aren't an authority on this topic.

Stick to changing lug nuts ma'am.

I see you are insistent on trying to trash another thread in srk.

No hammers runs didn't really go down like you try to imply. His runs were on a track so slick they stopped running on it that day. That means any runs on it is not going to be consistent enough to gather any information. Especially on a car with a whole new combo it's first time out.

But if you want you could use his results from his ls1 that had a few track outings and proves your theory wrong.

Again...it's a myth.

Using this logic, higher trap with better 60 = also a myth.

Mother of **** you are dumb as ****

No bueno. The guy with the white S550 ended up going drinking instead, most everyone else bailed due to the cold. Traction was non existent from a 40 roll... we all ended up calling it a night early, went to hooters to watch the Stros and drink beer.
