    I thought torque was more important to topspeed than hp, hence lets say a 10sec gxsr600 only being able to go 150-160mph or so. So when the wind resistance starts adding up @ 100+mph, the car with more torque will prevail, considering the cars have the same drag cf.

    I do not own DRs. I run 275/40 street tires on stock 17x9 wheels. I have 15x8 wheels with 26" slicks as well. My car doesn't hook up for shit on street tires in 1st or 2nd gear. It is a different story on the ET Streets.

    We can get to it Friday at AMS. Where is this track at? I'm not taking your money dude. You can just see what this car launches like at a properly prepped tracked on slicks.

    Wrong HP pulls cars to high top speeds. Torque helps the car get in the power band and helps pull the car until the HP takes over.

    has more to do with aerodynamics and gearing.....the gsxr is not very aero....im not sure about the gearing

    tq is still there. its just not what makes you faster once you get that speed..the HP your car is making is creating the MPH. the TQ is not a prevalent due to the momentum of the car

    i hope Ievo's bitch ass just learned a little something about a world he shouldnt be in

    i will teach him more when i see him

    but it was all accepted now i believe.

    i was just saying.... it was his "not terms" nemo agreed to.... then smack agreed, without understanding the circumstances of a "race track"... so "not terms" can still end up not being what you want... hence we have terms.



    oh yeah there is no time slips givin at ams but there is a win light... and you can get the wall side or the grass side.... choose wisely

    youre right but we all know how it would have ended he would have shown up seen how it worked back out and said something about a bunch of rednecks with nothing else to do on friday night... and then he goes to the street with his super fast slick tire driven car and raced till 3am in the morning endangering his and people around hims life when we would be in a controlled enviroment with safety personel.

    Dude, it's your daily driven street car, don't act like it's the end all of racecars. If you go to race somebody, it's to race them, not just to get a timeslip.

    nope, still waiting on my engine. It's not a fast turn-around on a engine build. I've just been enjoying my bike in the meantime.
