Yes you are right. My STR is 2.55 so times that by 330 rwtq and you'll have the number at launch. I couldn't hit it completely at launch because the tires can't take it.

Yeah thats nice but he wasnt supplementing those numbers. All he was giving me were his whp numbers which were also misconstrued through his dyno sheet let alone I couldnt see the torque numbers.

I think everyone is misconstruing my demeanor here. I have no doubt in my mind camaros can run awesome times but what I was doubting was with the info he provided me the times he was running didn't add up which was what I was doubting. capice!?

I posted numerous pics of the dyno sheet so that everyone could see the numbers. The torque numbers are clearly on there as well.

No, after I got my dyno numbers, I went to the track a month later. After I got the 2 12.2s then I added my current mods and got the new dyno number.

Now how about this one...... she had shorty headers on the car, flowmaster exhaust, 3.23 gears and some weight reduction, the car weighed in at about 33 and change with her in it. She ran 12.7 @ 111.7. She had no lid or aftermarket torque converter. Her car is more of a freak than mines is. This vid was taken at Commerce in GA. Her car is the blue formula in the right lane.

The point is not that he was not supplementing those numbers, but you did not understand the implication of those numbers. He said from the get go he is running a stall. If you knew much about drag racing you could have gleaned the same info that everyone has trying to tell you for about 4 or 5 pages now.

Dude I know about the stall. It still wasn't adding up dude. Even warr knew about the stall and he questioned it. Unless you think warr doesn't know anythign about drag racing too?

However, again I see your point. I only wish you could see mine.

Warr only questioned the mph not the ET. DA probably is what affected Warr's mph.

I know Warr has a history of racing EVO, but seeing as I have never met the man I will assume that he has not had any experience with rwd drag racing until he comes out and corrects me.
