To believe it went 1.28 60ft is delusional.



but a 3200# car with a RM spacer will?

ep-does this calculator take in to account gearing? launch rpm. shift point.....

And with the actual et:

60 Foot 0.98
330 Foot 2.83
660 Foot 4.44
660 MPH 153.09


and actual 60':

60 Foot 1.03
330 Foot 2.98
660 Foot 4.68
660 MPH 145.37


I think you need to work on your argument better...there are cars out there all the time running et/mph/60' that calculators say they can't.....

According to the calculator, I shouldn't be running the mph I am...the slower 60' is from tire shake...pretty sure once I get that dealt with my numbers will be better, and once I finish tuning it, they will get better yet....but the point is the calculator is off...period. It's NOT PROOF that a car can't run that....

No ya won't because the time slip you put your car number on, will have a 9.50 et equivalent 330ft time, and everyone will know you put your car number on someone else's time slip.

Proving you're pathetic and ate up over my 1.27 60 ft 3250 lb 10 x 28 bias tire sbc Nova.

I'll play along though. LoL

The rest of the run is right here, you've already seen it.

So what's the 330 ft on the timeslip from someone else's car you put your car number on, in order to pretend you've been 1.28 60 ft with your chevelle?

That's pathetic Ed.

What else is there to see Ed?

That's an excuse to not show the 330ft time on the timeslip from someone else's car, you put your car number on.

You can't show the 330 because it'll show how pathetic you are, putting your car number on someone else's timeslip.

That is pathetic ED.

It's easy to see your car number was put on the timeslip. Look at the difference in the font.

Actually, what's pathetic is saying someone forged a ticket, yet not having proof that quantifies that, using an online calculator that's meant for fun as actual proof, then claiming that the actual proof is not.....

What's even more pathetic is you haven't a clue about drag racing, otherwise you'd know better.

He won't show the 330, that's an admission in itself he put his car number on someone else's timeslip.

That's like a racer cheating. then driving out the gate before his car is looked at. An admission.

At least I can keep my car straight, and not hit cones as I go down track....But then again, I'm not afraid to admit there's a lot I don't know.....But there is a LOT that I do....and I know well enough that online calculators are not proof of anything, and are inaccurate 99.9% of the time....and that Ed didn't forge his time slip....

the only one in question has the car number hidden......and refuses to show it...Ed even gave you a number to call to back up his claim....where's yours? Say what you want about me, but I'm calling total bs on your **** on this thread....and that you obviously don't know as much as you claim, either......

So post the timeslip with YOUR car number on it.....because you haven't yet...just a time slip with the 60' you claim is yours....but haven't show any kind of proof.......NONE

And remember mikey, if you're going to rely on an online calculator which I've already demonstrated is inaccurate, you better come up with something better to validate your claim.......

I'm pretty sure there's cars up on the mountain in Denver Colorado that run times you'll tell me aren't possible due to altitude and DA...yet they do.......every race weekend.......

Believing Ed didn't put his car number on someone else's timeslip is as delusional as believing the Nova plowed the foam block with its front tire as Bradenton track officials claimed 45 minutes after declaring the wagon loser.

You got the market covered on delusional Colorado

Been a while since we had a peeing contest about heavy cars that 60ft well. LOL

Personally I felt a 1/2" 4 hole spacer on top of a 1" open spacer worked a hair better than nothing on our carbed 383 SBC with vic jr intake back in the day. A 2" open spacer slowed it down. Never tried the fancy spacers like Rehrer sells or the super suckers.

But on our Ron's injected engines I have went from no spacer to a 2" tall open adapter spacer on the same engine in the past and seen no difference. I feel the spacers can influence the signal/draw to the boosters on a carb. But with injection the fuel is mechanically forced in so doesn't make a difference.
