I know of a few people that can shift just as fast as an auto.Originally Posted by slowhawk01
And what's the point of your arguement about the weight of the transmission? You're saying the tranny is heavier but more weight in car = slower car. You just contradicted yourself there slick.
I guess if you do not know shit about cars than you wouldn't understand what I meant. I didn't mean a physical weight on the transmission. A 6-speed weighs more physically than an auto in an f-body. I work on these damn cars everyday you can pick up a automatic by hand but a 6 speed is more difficult to pick up because of weight. Who are you anyways?? What type of car do you have??
So explain to me how parasitic loss in an automatic is negated when racing on the street. Really, I'm intrigued.
And if you wanna know who I am, just ask crafty since he's the l337 hacker who has my IP address :jerkit:
It's just a simple request to an admin... not a hard thing to figure out..So explain to me how parasitic loss in an automatic is negated when racing on the street. Really, I'm intrigued.

Does it matter? Why are you avoiding my question?
And wouldn't an admin giving out my IP addy to other board members be a violation of the Privacy Statement?
damn, and here i was wondering why all sports cars come in 5 or 6 speeds, its to give slower less sporty cars a chance. well if anyone else wants a true sports car, im gonna call subaru and lotus and order an automatic sti and an auto elise.lol. also, is the auto z06 out yet?
When I was a child, I used to talk as a child, think as a child, reason as a child; when I became a man, I put aside childish things.
Wow this thread got out of hand.
1) If Crafty won, then he won, whether he has nitrous or not only he knows. I agree with SPeedmonkey, had you raced for MONEY and the race was based upon parties sharing info, then Crafty was shady.
HOWEVER, that was NOT the case, it was a RUN for FUN, so , Crafty could have said i have 200whp and if he won, well, thats just the way he does things.
2) Automatics WILL DYNO LOWER ON A DYNO. that does not mean they are SLOWER than a manual. Espeically with Domestics that have transmissions designed to handle the power, they arent comparable to wimpy Honda Automatics. Basically, if his car is an auto an dynoes 370whp, the drivetrain an load losses will show up on the dyno. The dyno reads (dynojet) by the speed at which the roller is turning , RPM calculates the TQ. Roller speed calculates HP, RPM calculates TQ. essentially all dynos only read TQ and convert it to HP. His car may make weak numbers on the dyno, but be much faster in person or on the road do to more load and shifting is faster with autos than the manual, on domestics IMO
3) While some shady past selling deals have been brought up, and while i in no way support bad business deals, this is not the forum for that. If you have had a problem with BCRAFTY aka Crafty, please take it to the "SELLERS FEEDBACK FORUM" or PM him.
If you are posting the details because it correlates directly to his character, that also is not the place for this. go to the whoreslounge.
Guy started this thread to see find out some info, the info will never be posted. as i said, race is over, only 1 person knows if Nitrous was used, and its evident this thread is going nowhere.
LOCKED , read the rules.
