from all the advice, i went ahead and changed up the list alil bit,
i have added,
1: engine mounts
2: tranny mounts
3: bwoodytraction bars
4:front strut bars
5: rear sway bars

what do you guys think?>

 

you used an example. he called you on it, because the numbers didnt add up
and you prove it by quoting a BOTCHED run.

yeah that makes sense....

 

most the numbers from the 70's where inflated big time, MOST not all but most of the muscle cars from the 70's where slow as ****. just did a quick google search and most of your base model 70's muscle cars with those high HP V8's where clicking off a whopping mid 15 to 17 second 1/4! congratulations, they run even with a stock cavalier Z24

 

And WTF does a botched run have to do with it. He said it was mathematically impossible to arrive at those numbers and I proved him wrong. Are all you people on here like 16 years old?

Man, no wonder I hang on the z06 sites instead of with teenage amateurs with their first car.

 

nice attitude.
you quoted a run and implied and suggested it was a LEGIT full speed normal run.
the numbers were ****** bullshit and you got called on it.

so to prove that somehow you werent wrong...you quote a BOTCHED run, further proving that your numbers were bullshit

and **** you for generalising.
im 28 years old. take your elitist smartass attitude elsewhere if you consider yourself so far above us because you drive a car with a bigger pricetag.

 

I'm sorry let me rephrase myself. We are talking about the possibility of our cars breaking the 13 second quarter mile correct? What I meant was that, assuming a good run, it is mathematically incorrect that everytime the car runs down the track that they will run a 13. In other words, with a GOOD run, not a BOTCHED run , the car is capable of faster, but you said it wasn't.....hmmmm.

To me you sound like the whiny immature one. Oh, and since you are generalizing about this site, are you a 45 year old popcorn fart who thinks he knows something about cars because he could turn the idle screw on a carburetor? Pull your tampon out and insert a fresh one.

BTW, if you use standard calculations to figure quarter mile times etc., none of the numbers you have posted in this thread would work UNLESS the run was botched. Sure, they won't be completely accurate, but they are a good guideline.

Edit: So on your botched run you ran a 1.8 second 60', had some problems and still trapped 111mph? Can we see the video? I bet you won't post a video.

 

deffinitly not running 100mph trap speed. if youd like i can take pictures of the slips and post them since i dont have a scanner.

 

wow.... its gettin heated in here. lol pwnd.
"lol, thats why i post on other forums"- thats great..... and thats why your not invited to my birthday party either!!!!

 

 

AHHHAHAHAHA
oh dude thats +rep for you.

 

Werd up

 

it doesn't not take 330 crank hp to get into the 12's
get off your got damn calculator sites.

factor in traction, shift times, temps, track temps, humidity, density altitude.
then factor in wheel hp, vehicle weight with driver.

when you figure all of that you, you come to realization that it only takes 102 mph to break 12's in the 1/4


can i come? i won't pee in the punch this time!

 

my little balt trapped 109 but only ran a 14.0 traction owned me. my Z28 however went 11.8@120 then went 11.54 spinning at 118, also watched a buddy in his nova go 10.9@94mph mph and ET all have to do with gearing.

 

#4 and #5 wont do anything for your 1/4 mile times

replace that with...

4) sticky tires
5) lightweight wheels

 

well done sir.

and anomalous i still love you

 

What was the rearend at on that Nova?

 

THANK YOU!

 

If I was a Oscar Myer wiener, would any of you eat me?

 

Ok mr mathmetician here ya go. Sorry it took me so long to post em but I hadto get a hold of the guy that took the video and then transfer it over and then Youtube it.......here is not 1 but 2 vidoes of my C5 Z06 and my brothers C6 Z06 (both are supercharged). I ran a 1.80 and he ran a 1.82 60 footer on Nitto drag radials. I trapped 112.74 at 13.07 and he trapped 114.87 at 13.09 (he short shifted each gear as did I 1K before revlimiter so technically they were not "botched" runs as I stated before, just lower rpm passes in each gear to get a wide band readout for some tuning in the pits before using any boost for the 600+ rwhp), but call em botched runs if you like as it doesnt matter cause it shows a low 60 footer can still have a lousy time and high trap even at full throttle through each gear).

Sorry for the lousy video (I didnt take it) and no sound but the guy that videod busted the mic that day.

Umm, why would you not go full throttle? Why would you only run 13s with supercharged corvettes?

+1 rep for the randomness!

 

edit: lol i didnt notice that this thread was 4 pages long lol, my post was useless.

 

Because its no big deal. They dont have to run all out each run just because you want them to.

 

So, you go to the track, still pull off a 1.8 launch, which would be the hardest part on the car, then go half throttle the rest of the way? Unless you are bracket racing, that don't make too much sense. Just my opinion. What are those cars actually capable of in thier current form?

 

Exactly....LOL

We dont make 20 psi boost runs until we make a couple runs with no and low boost and tune in the pits for the track temperature and humidity. You can tell some people are real amateurs in here about drag racing with their comments. We are laughing....

 

It's actually quite funny. Hence why I dont post in threads like this, I really REALLY want to but it's like boxing a kangaroo, you just look stupid and it doesn't prove anything.
