That's the whole point here... This car lacks traction so it's ET's suffer. That's why you get high trap speeds and high ET's.
I am sorry you can not understand this.

As for traction. I can easily burn the tires off in 1st or 2nd at will. Yes! At will, no dumping the clutch! A little in 3rd when shifting. I'm N/A... Not even forced induction...
You completely ignore my posts of 60' times and what they mean, yet continue to be Beligerant and Ignorant.

...and you wonder why you think people are "picking you out" It's so easy when you make yourself such a willing target.

Someone stuck "Torque Rules" in you head at one time and you use it as a crutch. I came from big block buicks & then turbo's. I love high torque ratings, but it's not the end all be all...


ok... lets see... david z (has one of the highest tq ratings on the board) ran 13s... bnoon (with a 100shot and lots of tq) ran 13s.... guys with 150+hp blowers and yet only 30-40+tq run mid to low 14s... you are right... now i see... sorry for ignoring the facts and just not listening to you in the first place. you are the end all be all, you are the contour guru.


i am offically a troll... so take my information and advice with a grain of salt.
