I'll post up times next trip I make. Most likely won't be impressive, but it's worthless for me to spend more money when my Focus RS is around the corner.

Not to mention that "bad" drivers usually spin more which lowers the ET but helps with the trap speed. In this case even the trap speed is not up to par. |

If you took a novice driver and put him in a stock Aventador that runs high 10's in the 1/4 mile with an experienced driver. I guarantee you the novice driver wouldnt get anywhere near the 10 second mark. The driver is the most important, in any tracked event. Last edited by BlackWidow; 09-29-2016 at 10:32 PM.. |

I'm not sure why you're implying that I said that something else is wrong with his CAR. I said it's not just the tune and that those times are well below normal 1/4 times. Someone else said that he is running stock times, which is not true.

Guys understand many sources measure 1/4's in many different ways! He's probably not running stock times because:
1. His R/T 2. He might have many different weight factors: a. His personal weight b. Other objects inside the car (he forgot or didnt take out) 3. His shifting vs automatic shifting I highly, HIGHLY doubt that all sources (you guys looked at) drag the same car that's 1. Exactly the same weight (including driver) 2. Shift exactly the same time 3. Launch exactly at the same time |

Mate, that's not the point i'm trying to make! I'm simply stating every source that's out there, that we as individuals use to look up STOCK 1/4 mile times, are not always the same and most of the time are different. It is very difficult for 2 sources to have the same 1/4 mile time for a specific vehicle, I know this because my best mate from high school works for a company where he drags stock cars and reports the 1/4 times.
Your 1/4 might've been different than his because 1. He is inexperienced whereas you might not be. 2. The weight in his car might be way different from the weight that was in your time, and what I mean by that is. He probably weighs either much more than you or much less OR he probably had other objects in the vehicle that could've had an impact to his ET. 3. Automatic vs manual shifting, I made a point about this earlier in the post, you might've shifted manually whereas he shifted automatically and remember that makes a huge, HUGE difference! |
