[QUOTE="tt335ci03cobra, post: 16334856, member: 68944"] I see 26 seconds to 30 seconds 130-150mph. That’s 3.5-4 seconds. The demon is obviously faster than the redeye so the average red eye is probably 4-4.5 seconds 130-150mph, [USER=10294]@Sirhc7897[/USER] [ATTACH=full]1613843[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]1613844[/ATTACH] [USER=10294]@Sirhc7897[/USER] [MEDIA=youtube]LBuwR3GafxM[/MEDIA] He goes from 1.51 to 1.49 to 1.47 60 ft and he goes from 127.x to 128.1 to 128.5mph almost as if by some miracle of miracles, reaching 60ft a fraction sooner a fraction more optimally sets up the car to trap speed a fraction quicker and faster. Best way to think of that is if you take a car and accelerate 1260ft wide open throttle with two tests, one from 29mph and the other from 30mph, and are able to hookup equally optimally on both runs, the vehicle starting at 30mph will likely be traveling more than 1mph faster than the car that started at 29mph. On traction limited cars, this is very evident. Fwd cars literally drop 1-2 seconds and trap 10-20mph high on drag radials and slicks all season or decent summer tires. A tiny bit of spin on power shifts can bolster mph and reduce elapsed time, but much more than that ends up hurting elapsed time and very soon thereafter begins hurting trap speed. It’s not video games or whatever you insinuate I’m trying to sell a room of people on the Internet, it’s common sense. Here’s an awd skyline that picks up 4mph in the 1/4 mile. Just street tires swapped for drag radials. He even spins quite a bit launching much higher rpm. [MEDIA=youtube]TUlBnQKnXP4[/MEDIA] Cheers. [/QUOTE]
