Not a very good vid or race but nice win for the TVS. The car that makes more pwr under the curve or useable pwr in the cars rpm range always wins. Peak has never ment anything to me.

again, roll race, stick car,

starting rpm, and driver are everything,

take 2 autos and put them side by side at the different rpms starts and go from there

It was cooooold lol tried heating the tires up to help out but it wasn't a huge difference. The first race i got pretty loose with my back end according to the trail truck lol and the last one where he "gave me the hit" was the best run and i missed fifth which is why i fell so far back up top....i wish they were all as clean as the last one but oh well hopefully we'll get some more runs in before he leaves

Op, no surprise you won. You have more boost and if you didnt have the longtubes the boost would be even higher. What size pulley you running on the tvs? Vortech had stock pulley and no longtubes right?

Regardless nice runs!

82mm pulley. I see about 8 to 8.5 psi.

You mad?? They were having fun there big guy...

TVS FTW homey!! MILGT you must not be know how to drive because I know Shawn can't drive!! lol

I just wanted him to feel good about himself is all. Whenever he wants the REAL race I'm ready :p

JK JK lol

I demand a re-race in the day time. I couldn't see squat.:bash:
A race in the daytime would work out better it's just the logistics of it right now.

82mm pulley. I see about 8 to 8.5 psi.

On the dyno I was seeing right around 7ish

Lol, figured you were there watching the game. I had to stop by verizon for a little bit and was trying to hurry up so I could get back home and watch the rest of the game.

looked like if the vortech car had not missed a gear he might have started pulling as he can rev it out higher and been in the sweet spots vs the tvs! but none the less I vote for a daytime run!

We will get the daytime run. my car makes power all the way to 7k and barely falls off above that so I shift at 7k. When I looked in the mirror when I shifted to 4th and in the higher RPMs the car was starting to pull. I don't think he will come on that strong on the top end against my car tbh.
