x.6667 to x.9999 is high

Anyone that has completed grade 3 math (Hiollary excluded) can see that this has nothing to do with rounding.
Damn, I wanted to see how long it was going to take him to get it.

0. And no, not kinda 0, it’s a hard round to 0 in this case.

You're not rounding the 0. You're rounding the 3 to a 5 or a 0.

it's not even a opinion. You got it right.....they didn't. They're very liberal with their math (and genders) when it suits them. They definitely don't like hard numbers.

One could even be generous and say 11.0-11.2x is low 11s give all of the .2 to the benefit of the doubt. But you definitely start running into a numbers issue past that. No different than someone trying to calling a car that went 11.0 a 10sec car. Maybe it could be but till either has they haven't.

I even took it to 4 decimals. Reduces any rounding.

Brother, I love you

He’s out of the 12’s
He’s under an 11.5x
He’s on his way to 10’s

I’m not sure if there’s a mathematical conversion for my term “flirting” with 10’s but you’d be hard pressed to say he’s not well on the way

Gonna have to be closer than 11.3 to flirt with the 10s......especially with the trap it has.

I mean **** i ran 10s and these guys try to to say 11s.

i haven't said anything bad about it. I'm just not as generous as some are with the et it ran.

Good luck with it. I definitely don't wish any bad....not on anyone.

The fastest lbo 392 challenger done been 10.77 with only a 123 mph trap lol . I’m looking for 125 next time out with the changes the converter issue/shift point was holding me back was my main issue .
