Are we going to have time for a little T&T prior to go time to get dialed in? (tire psi, boost, etc)

 

man ill go lets get it i want the right lane naw but how about two seperate classes though

 

LOL

 

hmm i can give you a more definite answer later on

if not ill definatley be along for the ride

 

there is absolutely no comparison between a 1000whp automatic domestic on pump w meth injection when an import can make max of about 500 on pump, maybe 600 with meth injection. a turbo domestic that is built for drag racing will walk any turbo import, especially on a radial. the 60ft doesnt matter much with the imports, the 330 is what kills you because they spin so bad when shifting. basically, domestics have at least 4-5 9 second cars on radials and the imports are impossible to run that. the 10.01 that ramey is talking about was done on a bias-ply M&H i believe. at least give the imports a slight chance. I have been in this scene for way to long to not know when a "race setup" isnt fair, and this DEFINITELY is NOT going to be fair. so if you import guys really think you can win this average time thing, give it up and admit defeat.

 

to the OP and this thread.

I'll never have a fast street car.

 

thats what im trying to say but its like beating a dead horse, and the 10.1 was done on a bias-plys, u have been doing this long enoght to know imports vs domestic at mir has the rules it has for a reason to keep the racing fare and thats why its the best race of the year hands down

all the honda guys might as well not go and leave it up to whatever rwd imports that might go

 

this is why i havent even thought to mention this race to anyone.

 

You bring up a lot of very good points. Lets address the hp levels. most Honda's that i have seen are below or around 2300 pounds, i will have the lightest domestic so far on that list and im right at 3500 pounds. most of them weighing around 3900. The weight difference balances out the hp levels, And not all of the domestic cars on the list are any were near 1000hp, there only 2 on there so far.

Again the whole tire thing is to get the cars running on the track like they do on the street. You would lol if i showed you the 330ft times on my car, I think they are somewere in the 5's or high 4s witch is garbage! If your worried about the auto cars you shouldnt, there going to be on 17s and cant do but so much.

This whole thing is not about being fair, The only rules are street cars and tires. its about what you would run on the street with your street car. We can also do a MPH average along with ET if it makes everyone feel better. Would you rather see it be a round race and not a average?

 

my car weights almost 2600 most street cars are going to weight around there unless u have an ef, i have seen some street coupes that make 500hp and weight almost 3k so that does not fly with me
