LOL..thats what I dont think he understands. It was three cars behind us. They saw my car get sideways a bit, heard me lift and get back on it and I still was able to pass him. We werent even going much over 80 mph IF that. I wanted to bring out my drag radials and run but my boys told me not to. Next time I am either bringing them out or I will go a bit easier on the launch so it doesnt spin AT ALL.

If the race is from another roll, I give the T/A about a car for a second until the Supra spools, then the Supras extra 100RWHP+ will easily pull away. It would be even worse if it was from a dead stop. This is all asuming that the cars get traction. If the cars spin, then it could be anyones race.

I "no" laws of physics, but whatever you say. My hunch is that it was spun slightly higher than that. Maybe the owner will speak up, not a big deal either way, the car certainly makes great power.

my car is the 7th car down. reason we stopped at 5100 is to build up power low and maintain it all the way through. It is now over 500. I have the graph from the 472 one. Just gotta scan it. I would have already had it on here but my CPU died so I am using other peoples or works cpu to get on here.

Ced I do believe we went over an 1/8 more like a 1/4 and as far as the speed goes we where in the 100s when we hit that curve. never the less it was fun. And as per our phone call today we both have to get the DRs on and go again. We do have to record it though. Like I have said before I dont care about winning or lossing as long as its a good clean run. and no major crying like the 8urv8 kid(EVO8)

You havent run the 1/4 in the new setup have you? My car ran 105 mph in the 1/8 on the OLD setup. I can show you several timeslips if you would like to see them. We started from 50 mph so that was not close to a 1/4 mile at all.

Yep..if we had run a full 1/4 mile starting at 50 we would have been going ALOT faster than that.

It did feel further than that but yeah starting at 50 would make sense though. We will have to get a good clean one in one of these days
