As for not telling you everything, I understand your caution but I really don't have any tricks up my sleeve. What you see is what you get with me. I've been around the car/drag racing scene for far too long to know that is usually not the case, but then I'm not a hardcore racer, either. It's all about the fun of it for me. ![]() |

get both cars on the same track on the same day run it with the same driver that is not partial to either car or owner and run them both in consecutive runs in the same lane.. make 3 passes each car and average the times...
or swap drivers for each pass and swap lanes every other pass. and run them 6 times and average the times... I think that will tell you which car is better...

LOL..I compete in NHRA Div2 in a TAD. So I may view things a bit differently. Wheel Hop is a drive around to me...and the key to my world is being consistent if the car throws something new at you..you handle it..no time for excuses...you learn your cars manners and you handle it and get down the track. I laugh to myself when I hear of wheel hop issues or traction issues...but thats just me..learn how to drive it to make it hook and gain your speed where you need to...drag racing is not point and shoot...but time to get ready to go to the Christmas Party have a good evening

Tools being launch dynamics. Launch Dynamics rely on powertrain delivery (powerband and drivetrain reliability) and how its planted (suspension and traction). That the key for me. But I guess I look at a car too much like a weapon.

what I mean is it takes care of the driver experience, and track differences... and in drag racing isn't the faster car the better one?

*Sigh* Im not questioning capablities. I discussing consistancy in an everyday performance. Just nevermind.
Im not a track god like junkie and dont have NHRA trophy case. Nor, do I wish to get into the SRA vs. IRA debate that many are fond of (which are the tools I speak of). I dont even know why I discussed it this far. I should of said "oh hallowed are the camaros" and bowed in accordance.
