Need some help with some ET numbers
Am i missing something or is this just a lack of horsepower on the car or driver or what?
My mph when compared to a lot of others is low, even my 1/8 times is low but my 60 foot when compared to a lot of other high 12.9's and low 13's is low really low. Average 60 for a high 12 is 1.9 to 2,01 mine is 1.76 to 1.87's. Also I am 2 to 3 mph off and also my 1/8 et is 2 to 3 10ths better than most others. I do not get this as my 1/8 mph is low and so is the 1/4 but my 60 are better than most and my 1/8th et is better than most but end 1/4 is not. Can anyone take a stab at this or an explanation maybe. Here is an example, on an et board for Mach 1's I am 27th on 60ft time and 33th on 1/8 et. Here is where the issues start, mph 1/8 I am 59th and 1/4 mph I am 81st Final 1/4 e.t. is 51st Base list of Machs has roughly 100 to 130 on lists. ( not all have put in all stats) I would really like to solve this puzzle or at least understand it. Thanks |

I am not worried about the list.:) I am concerned about the power or lack of it. They all can not be liars, I am down about 3 or 4 mph compared to the average. That is why I am asking and also as I would like to know. Thanks though. |

Cooled down and ran a 13.06 than a 12.97 and than a 13.06. Cooled right down and started messing up again so I packed it in.:) I agree about the line and thanks for the observations. All the info helps. Short time on the 12 sec pass was 1.769 I think good for a Nitto drag radial. |
all good...there is a distinct groove at tmp as well..if your out your times will suffer...maybe we can hook up next time and ill line ya up and you will see a diff...
