Absolutely Rediculous Street Launch Vids

5500rpm clutch slip...Recockulous! I know this section is supposed to be general cobalt, but I figured alot of people might want to see these. Clearly another reminder about the difference between traction and no traction. Our cars can have as much power as they want but until you can put it to the ground, it means nothing if you're trying to improve your times/technique.

This VR4 is probably only putting out about 255awhp I'd say, as it has intake, downpipe, boost controller @ 10psi (9psi stock which puts out ~230whp) and a clutch (and weighs 3700lbs!). Needless to say he has been through 4 transfer cases (Im a member on 3SI).


92 3000GT VR4 vs LS1 Firebird Formula

Same VR4 vs 07 Mustang GT

haha everyone knows AWD is better, just saying this is another illustration of what traction can do. Not throwing anything new out.

also

91-93's had 300hp 307tq and 94-99's: 320hp 315tq

but wheel horsepower is what matters

lol didnt notice your 'w' before 'hp'.

yeah its all about that launch. i think if that LS1 and VR4 were going from a 30 mph roll, the VR4 would of been spanked.
