    I told you to get those headers you have on your car! If you made your own cat delete pipe on your ACR I am sure you could do it on the TA

    Andy, don't start modding until you let us know how the TA does at the drag strip, stock. You might be the only one that owns one that would be willing to drag race. Maybe some Fri we take both cars out?

    Sure we can look at a time to head out there. Weather is already getting hot so won't set any records but if your car is there we can atleast benchmark it against yours. The only way you goat me into running in lousy DA is I have a car I can atleast benchmark against. If that's not the case I will wait until the weather cools off again and by that time I will modded.

    Tony let me know (honestly) if you want to make a couple pulls against it in the mean time.

    Sure, we can go run them whenever. Would make some cool videos anyways. I'll be at RPR this weekend, but drag racing in the Camaro for a Camaro weekend event.

    Vroom!



    Lapeer Dragway Michigan. 44degree day. 1.809sec 60ft, on stock Pirelli Corsa's aired down to 15psi. No internal engine modifications

    Nice video find, thanks for posting.

    Cheers,

    I ran drag radials without tps and it did not go into limp mode, however, if you are in the staging line and start the car, the tire pressure screen comes on and warns you the tires are low. That does not seem like a big problem, however, the screen stays there for a short time and does not allow you to turn off ESC. I am not sure that same screen will lock out the ESC if the tires are just low, however, it will not go into limp

    I looked up the strip Ralph ran at and the DA looks like it was -93.

    Even that's not "that" good. I've run in -1800 DA at Cecil County raceway and -1600 at MIR when I lived in Maryland. Those record Z06 and ZR1 runs are done in that kind of DA.

    When will the tune be released? Any ideas on that at all? Allegedly he had a tune to hit these kind of numbers. I imagine the tune with some minor mods would go a long way in this car.

    Look at reaction time. That looks like someone using launch control. Either that or snoozing.

    Or taking his time to set his own launch RPM properly. I do that often at track rentals. SLowly bring up the RPM's to where I want and then make the pass.

    No one trying to set a good time cares about reaction time, if your not racing in an event.

    Yeah, what does that have to do with anything? Doesn't change your ET no matter how long you sit there. Clock goes once you trip the sensor.

    My only point is that in general when you line up with another car you want to win. Secondly, unless something is strange you can have your r 's where you want them before the light falls.

    I guess so but if your going for a personal best or its a record run I'll just let the other car get out.
