We would have to investigate how much weight the sunroof adds, leather interior, RS package, and the spare tire. But when all said and done I will bet it is close to 100 lbs.

As far as I know, the spare isn't an option for the RS equipped cars. Only the plug kit.

The spare tire and everything included with it weighs 47lbs so that is half of the diff right there basically and the sunroof does add a good amount of weight. Also there could be some variation in the 1/4 tank of gas for example your car could of had a little less while the other a little more but that would prob be a diff of +/- 5lbs?

Interesting. They didn't let my buddy get it on his. Learn something new. But yea the spare is easily half the diff. The heated seats is probably the next difference

"Seems like you have issues with her outperforming what you think is believable. " I think that's obvious? lol And you can get upset I'm raising the flag, but I've already said in two posts I'd put my money where my mouth is. In my opinion AGAIN, this thing is either a factory freak, which would be sick, or its a track error so either outcome is something I'm interested in. Quote:

And if she can get a dyno for a similar cost of a rental sure but it would be better to see how it fares against another stock car. And don't hate on bench racing its nice and free and no one goes home with broken parts 12.9ish or the exact same low 13. Nice try though lol |

Okay, I'm going to do a little ricer math myself.
Stock LLT = 312 HP Manual Transmission = 15% Drivetrain Loss Stock LLT/M6 = 312*0.85 = 265.2 RWHP Stock LFX = 323 HP Auto Transmission = 20% Drivetrain Loss Stock LFX/A6 = 323*0.80 = 258.4 RWHP Difference of 6.8 RWHP. Don't you think a negative 1000 DA could erase that 6.8 RWHP? Add to that lower weight (you had a RS which definitely weighs more than a 2LS) and you probably weigh more than her. We don't know how much gas you had either. Spinning also results on higher trap speeds than a dead hook. Finally, lower numerical gears produce lower 60's (with traction), but they often result in higher trap speeds. Given MotorTrend had a trap speed of 99.2 MPH on their SGM M6, don't you think 100.77 in a lighter car with that DA and gear seems quite reasonable? http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/...est/specs.html At one time you thougt your home-made CAI would get you to 13.9. Everyone told you you would need to drop weight and get a fantastic DA to have a chance for a 13.9. She's running a lower race weight than most of us with great DA and she is a better driver than most of us. Everyone supported you when you expected to run 13.9 and still gave you kudos when you didn't get it but ran a 14.3 bone stock. Go back and read some of that and think about it. http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=78134 http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=139882 http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...=139882&page=2 http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?

I was at the track on the 16th and personally saw her run 14.00.
It impressed the hell out me to see a base model (black rims) very quiet exhaust v6 run 14 flat. Twice she did it. Here is my bext run Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk |

[QUOTE=DarkneSS;7289099]
I never brought up driver skill or doubted her skill. From the first post I claimed either the car might be a factory freak or its track error. I get what your saying and all the points you are making only paint this situation more so in her favor. My point is you are straddling the fence on your opinion. You either think she's lying, or that the track was spitting out false time slips, (which could happen). BUT it's not like this is her only slip or track in which she has run close to this time! BOOM... There goes your broken time slip theory? So now we are left with 2 choices. Either she is flat out lying about her mods, (in which you aren't saying that, but by process of elimination...yes you are) OR you are giving yourself an OUT, by saying "Or it's a factory Freak?" Lets assume that it is a factory freak? Don't you find it very possible that that same factory freak, with less weight for whatever amount or reason, plus -900 DA can run that time? Obviously you do think it's possibly Bc otherwise you wouldn't have said it could be a factory freak. You would have said NO WAY IN HELL IT RAN THAT!! So now how are you gonna feel if she proves you dead wrong? You should feel like eating 2 serving of foot in your mouth with a side of crow. I am not mad or upset at you having an opinion, I am just simply stating the fact that nobody would want their credit taken away if in fact their car ran a legit time, and then some dude with a bone to pick, or just too outspoken decides to take away that credit! Think about that. |
