Tunerfest 1/4 results...

[Jaimecbr900]

If you cut that 2.2 down to a low 1.6 or 1.5 you've knocked off .6 in the 1/8th.


That alone gives you a 7.9, however when you cut that much off your 60 you can typically get even more off the 1/8th. So lets say with a 1.6 60' you cut a 7.8 - 7.9


7.8 in the 1/8th is roughly 11.8 - 12.0 in the 1/4th. Even lower with a good geared back halfing car.


My camaro did some 7.45 // 11.5-11.8 runs.


The math is easy to do.

My GTO ran some low 8.2's and ran 12.7 in the 1/4th.

Really?

Well, I have cut 1.8 60' times more than once. My car still wasn't in the 11's. Trapped over 112, still wasn't in the 11's. Ran at your favorite uber faster than anything else track, and still wasn't in the 11's. Bottomline? I don't have an 11 sec car any way you slice it, yet I've hit all the numbers your magic calculator says will net me an 11 sec pass.

Considering that I beat both your 60', 1/8th, and 1/4 times on the same exact track, on the exact same night, under the exact same conditions........does that now make me the king ding-a-ling launch master now then????? I mean since we're using magic calculators and stuff.

Sigh.

112 mph is plenty to get into the 11's. It would be VERY high 11's, but if it hooked it'd be in the 11's.

Cut a 1.5 - 1.6 60', and then run 112 mph and your ass is in the 11's.

A 1.8 isn't going to get you into the 11's with a 112 pass.

YOU don't have an 11 second car, because your **** doesn't hook.

I got a 1.7 60ft with a 110 trap speed and got into the 11's

Exactly my point.

Anytime I see a car that runs 110-113 mph that is in the 12's or 13's... I think that car has 11 potential if the guy would drive it, and make it hook like it should to be a quarter mile contender.

Suspension, drivetrain, and then power. If you want a car that works on the dragstrip.

Sadly, you boys only seem to be interested in the "look how big my dic.k is" idea of racing. You add all this HP.... do nothing to make it hook.... and then you all go doing rolling starts like nascar or some ****.

You are an idiot. How about tires... Thats what makes a car work (60ft) on the drag strip.

There is a lexus cutting a 1.36 60ft. Not bad for a NON hooking car What kind of 60ft's have you run?

[Jaimecbr900]

The physics come into play, mostly in how the car leaves the line.

Some cars just don't hook. A lexus isn't a "hooking" car. Never will be.

"Never" will be????

Any car can be anything they are built to be. If I didn't want A/C, Leather heated seats, Cruise Control, Traction Control, Climate Control, PW, PDL, PW and heated mirrors, full stereo, TV's, amps, speakers, BBK, completely STOCK motor.....I could do this all day long you know.....then I would've built me a car that would run on the 1/4. But since I just have a DAILY DRIVER, with 150K+ to boot, then I'll just leave all the macho chest pounding about your car "hooking" on DR's to you. How about that?

Here you go Thacker......a REAL racer speaking. Funny how a Lexus doesn't "hook up", huh? Like Clark said, you're an idiot.

Like I told your young punk a$$ before, you THINK you know about "racing" when you're no more than Monday morning QB pulling numbers from thin air that coincide with your ego.

Clark, this kid loves to talk a ton of smack but keeps his super uber secret race track numbers from his so-called "stock"....wink, wink.....GTO to himself because like all good street racers he wants to bait people into street racing. Yet ironically enough I saw a guy that looked identical to him, driving a blacked out GTO, with black wheels, no spoiler, GF in the car, that cut an uber fast and blazing 13.9 in the super duper end all "hook" car.....

He claims to be the one and only "stock" GTO to be in the low 12's or something like that. Because we all know that there are tons of production "stock" cars busting out 12's right off the showroom floor.

Whatever. He just gets on my nerves with all his constant bragging and opinionating.

Whatever dude. Keep guessing and pulling numbers out of your a$$. I don't care.

My "sh!t" doesn't "hook", yet it "hooked" enough to beat YOUR super duper launch machine...by a lot.......what's that say for you?????

I'm so tired of arm chair QBs and all this talk about shoulda, woulda, coulda......:jerkit: It gets old. Especially since stock G8's were running same or better times than you were with your so called-stock machine. I also noticed that if the amount of people around you last night is an indication of the amount of friends you have IRL, then I understand your bitterness and boasting since it must be very lonely when off-line.

Stop talking all the smack already like you're some kind of racer. I was doing real racing in real American muscle cars and imports when you weren't even a tad pole in your old man's scrotum, yet you don't see me going around patting myself on the back like I'm the John Force of street racing. It gets old dude. REALLY old. After seeing your launching and racing prowess first hand myself right before you busted out a remarkable 13.9 and YOU got walked.....I wouldn't beat on my chest too damn hard. Where did you go after that? I was figuring you'd come back around to redeem that shattered ego of yours. What happened?

LOL. What are you talking about?

My GTO has been on jack stands for about 2 weeks now, I've got 2-3 people that can confirm that. It hasn't left my house.

Infact, I got a ticket stub from seeing Death Race saturday night at 9:50 pm at Carmike Cinemas in NEWNAN, GA.

Whoevers car you saw run , DEFINITELY wasn't mine.

Was the car missing its spoiler? Was it on 19" Black Chrome NICHE rims? I highly doubt it. That is funny tho. You see a ****ty driver in a slower truely stock GTO and your nuts flair up. Maybe you should call me out to the street?
