Again, to everyone who kept saying high end power is everything. Just compare the nitrous svt to the s/c svt. What are the times between the two? And which one is running faster? I think you can find the answer.
They're actually fairly similar, with nitrous barely getting the edge using a 100 shot, which would equate to the power of a supercharged SVT.
Also regarding to svt2000's time. Traction is not the only thing that gives him the 2.1 60'.
Ummm, traction is pretty much the only thing that gives him a 2.1 60'.
[/qb]You also need the power to get the lower 60' which means low end torque. svt2000 makes that up by being a nut launching the car at 5k so he has the power to get the car out of the hole. [/QB]
Right, for whatever reason, he can hook up launching at 5k. You wanna know what *I* get launching at 5k? Whole buncha tire spin and smoke, and a 3 sec. 60'.
This, once again, proves that traction is what we need more than anything else. Even with my measly torque right now, I can't hook up, so how would low-end torque help me?
If I put on a set of slicks, with which I will bog down no matter how I launch, then I'll say we need more low-end torque to get low ETs.
