What was his best run?

[magikstik8457]

on this particular day it was 11.27, he only made 3 passes and was too pissed with the lack of traction and went home

[Acefighter17]

Horsepower is easy. Traction isn't.

[DonoftheBran]

11.27 is VERY GOOD for the traction he was pulling.

[xbassanix]

Well you did handle those tires pretty good!! VERY NICE

[lvgordo]

learning how to launch a high hp car is a talent all its own.

I went 10.80 at 127 on pump gas tune on drls with stock blower at 17psi. my car only has 650wrhp. you just need to learn the car. im leaving the line at 4,500rpm. I have mickey t's

[ESPsandEmgs]

yea, he handled the tire spin great.

[tufmandan]

He hooked just fine after he hit second actually a pretty good driver from what i can hear

[TEFLONTHADON]

I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree on this one lol, no need to get into an arguement. But as far as suspension? I've watched 1000rwhp viper dead hook from second on on DR's. You can't deny the suspension in these mustangs are under par.

@TEFLONTHADON Man I have been around too many supercharged cars, INCLUDING one or 2 gt500's on the track to mistake blower wine from wheelspin, two COMPLETELY DIFFERENT types of noises... and no one said anything about the GT500's suspension except you... the issue here is putting down 700RWHP on DR's!!! That is the reason for the lack of traction! Slicks are a necessity at that level of power...

[TEFLONTHADON]

@edmundnlemadim Lol I feel as though your mistaking wheelspin for the whine of that supercharger. The suspension on the GT500's are trash but they don't suck that bad.

[edmundnlemadim]

@TEFLONTHADON as clear as day, you can hear WHEELSPIN as he goes down the track... you know, the SAME NOISE OCCURING WHILE HE'S BURNING OUT!? I mean its incredibly clear he dosent hook 100% until 3rd... turn up the volume if you need to...

[TEFLONTHADON]

Put two and two together if you would/could. He only spun all the way through first and grabbed fully in second. You said he spun 3/4 of the way down the track, he would have needed to run 1st 3/4 down the track. I hope that makes sence to ya. He spun maybe the first 100ft
