Very sick. Ragin' Racing is making a name for themselves I see.

not sure if that was a drag radial on the back or not but even if it was, with that little of sidewall i imagine it is tough to get 600hp to hook off the line.
Cant you get mph off a dyno??? I mean if thats all youre looking for...
If you dont want to break stuff stay off the strip.
ill quote myself

I would say his reason for leaving soft was more due to the tire than being scared of breaking something. Maybe you can give him some launching lessons, you seem to have some impressive E.T.s under your belt.

Ahhh, the internet fool that has no idea what he is talking about. How exactly do you get an accurate trap speed through the 1/4 mile off of a dyno? Dynoes measure torque and hp, not E.T. and trap speed, Mr. 1.96 60 ft.

Are you serious? Your car is a roach and you're talking about a 10.80
car like that? You don't even have enough power to break anything.
Do you understand what it takes to get that kind of power down on
a tire with very little sidewall...particularly in a Corvette? Take off your
blinders and stop being an internet babbler.
BTW, trap speed is a calculation over the last 66 feet of the track.
I agree there's probably more in it, but damn to not destroy that thin wall tire i give major props! Just because someone is looking for a # on the track doesn't mean they have to cut a light on the tree,

He may be an internet fool, but you're not far behind. You can get fairly accurate simulated 1/4 mile ETs and trap speeds from a dyno.
I've been 10s on an 18" tire, so it's not that hard.

You really need to find something else to do, being half retarded shouldn't be your full time occupation. There are way too many variables to get an accurate 1/4 mile E.T. off of a dyno. Launch (1.4 60 ft vs 2.0 60 ft, ie), weather, track prep, tires (if different then the ones used to dyno.), and wind speed and direction are some of the variables.

That statement fully confirms my suspicion that you're talking out your ass as you have no firsthand experience - otherwise you'd think different.
The dyno told me I would run 11.0 @ 125. I went 10.9 @ 124. Sound fairly accurate to me

Just out of curiosity, how would a dyno know the difference between me running a powerglide with a Neil Chance converter and a 31x10.5W (1.3 60')...or whether I was running a stock T-56 with stock F1 tires (2.4 60')? Your dyno racing comments are pretty funny in all honesty. We have guys here who do nothing but bench race, but actually racing
a dyno for ET's is hysterical.
