[QUOTE="Got Incon?, post: 196656, member: 6090"] Actually no, if the first vehicle starts accelerating first, it will move away continuosly not pull ahead then stop pulling. Say they are doing 50. The cobra punches it and pulls up to 57 pefore the lightning downshifts and starts moving. Well now the cobras speed is 7 mph greater than the L even though the L is now accelerating, the 7 mph advantage is still there to the Cobra. So it will just walk away slowly even if the cars are dead nutz matched. Trust me on this, I have seen it to many times in my own L while racing a manual car. If I just floor it while cruising when I hear the other car go for it, I don't start going for a half sec or so and the other car usually walks me. If I punch it and then they go then we get a much better start. I've pulled quite a few M6 LS1's on the interstate but only if we start going at the same time, meaning I either downshifted for it or punched the gas before they did so that we both actually start to accelerate at the same time. Otherwise they just walk away slowly. [/QUOTE]
