Here is a better example. My first pass at the last track day was against PlanZ. I crossed the finish line a full car in front of him yet his time was 12.8 to my 12.9. His mph was 6 mph more than mine. My 60 ft was much better therefore my trap speed came down. It also gave me the race.

 

Mine isn't 25K and it isn't AWD. Plus it is my daily driver with ice cold ac. WTF was your point here. Billy answered the question and rather than learn something and just say ok I get it you come back with cost, and it's AWD.

 

if u were ahead and he ran 12.8, his reaction time was worse... and the higher trap just means he spun more than you. i'm not doubting your theory, just trying to figure out how it works.

 

What was the point of this post? I said his 25k car keeps up from a roll, had nothing todo with digs or et's. And your trap isnt all that unbelievably low for your et. Billy ran 12's with a lower trap than you. Maybe you are dumb enough to compare et/traps of an AWD car to that of a 2wd street car but i'm not.

 

Heres how it works. Lets say you and I have 2 yo yo's. you put yours down on the ground and roll it as hard as you can towards the finish line. I on the other hand throw my yo yo down and let it spin full speed for a full speed before I release it. Mine will have the greater momentum and therefore trap higher than yours even though you will have the quicker time with the lower trap speed. Take physics next semester. It should help you understand simple things like this. BTW I was not comparing AWD and 2WD.

 

why do we have a call out for 13sec turbo cars , i mean i know there is a lot of them but so

 

What's your point? Don't you think that people with 13 sec cars like to race them? Heck you could always call somebody out and spice things up.

 

Sure thing, when? Id rather do it on an oddball day and not on a saturday night. Hell we can meet up tonight if you want. I can assure you I am not skurred and confused. And how in the world did you ever guess I was on drag radials. Damn your good.

 

When i had my se-r I was still at the drag strip alot abnd always prefer a dig. I however realized fwd absolutely sux so I sold the car for a rwd. And i wish my car only cost 25k. And i am not mad about anything because I doubt your 2k car is on par with my stock car. And if you do congrats, but Ill still turn on the win light every single time against you at the strip and any other racing venue of your choice. Thats really all I am concerned about.

 

That doesnt apply because we have clutches. We can launch at higher rpm's to keep us in our powerbands. I'm surprised you even remember your physics class.
Billy's analogy was using awd vehicles and you tried to use it as an example.
