Common sense.

Sorry, I missed this.

You also increase the LOAD! I forgot that, how foolish of me,,, was that an error or a mistake?

How can you tell if you are driving through the converter?


For me it’s when the difference between the flash rpm at launch and shift completion rpm is less than 500 rpm. In the -700’ DA run I posted, the difference between flash and shift was 516 rpm. The fall back after shift was 540 rpm. This is my ragged edge. The convertor was cut 3X to get what I wanted. I have a sbc / 2840# door car.

That was an error on your part, because you're clueless dumbfuk again.

More power is less load, that's why more power goes faster up a hill or on flat surfaces all things equal, dumbfuk.

Common sense.

As a point of interest when I was running 3.70's @ 196+,my converter slip was 4%..... But I was geared to cross the stripe at a high rpm on the 1/8th mile. If I would have had 1/4 mile gearing the slip would have been higher at the 1/8th.....

No need to get nasty!

If more power = less load then why does the converter stall higher? If you took out the converter and replaced it with a torsional spring, by your logic, the spring would have less torsional deflection...……. ya that makes perfect sense to me now... it's call non-sense.

Never mind answering, I am sure you have stupid twisted answer for that question also.

Yes it would because it has less load! I am having a hard time trying to explain this one topic to a certain individual on this web site, can you help me out? Cool

That has to do with the existing centrifugal force of the oil within the converter, associated with the existing rpm, not load as dumbfuk Top38 assumes.

What % of slip does that p*ssy between your legs produce?

Or them lips when you're killing time at the track, blowing track officials? Confused

I had a FTI XPM converter that would slip less than 2% in the 1/8th mile. It was bada$$ in good weather. However it was not as forgiving in normal or bad weather as my “standard” FTI converter that slips closer to 7-9% in the 1/8th regardless if I ran on HP, 1-stage, or 2-stages of NOS.

That's another example of existing centrifugal force of the oil acting on the turbine, between all three tuneups, based on existing flexplate rpm..... n/a, one or two doses of nitrous.

If you won't race under lefty command, you won't have to worry about their cons.

Pick and choose where you race, carefully. Race under the command of God fearing people, would be my advice to anyone.

These clowns ain't God fearing people, they ran off and hid, when it was time to clarify the call. They think they can do whatever they want, it's their track, they aren't bound by honor or integrity.

That's a clown track for democrats who can take fake news in stride.

This ain't no time in history to be hanging out with people who's word can't be trusted.

If SFG were sent from God, this would be the last facility it would hold a race, with its current leadership pension for self evident cons.

These people ran away and hid, because they know they owe a racer an apology.

That should tell ya everything you need to know about them.

I race 7 days a week, most weeks, I just don't race with sore loser lying, crying, denying democrats.

I pick and choose who I race with.

How about you? I've never seen anything to indicate or evidence you've ever been within a 100 feet of a race car.

LOL.....you aren't racing 7 days a year let alone a week.
Ohh.....because I'm not posting my life on this place means I don't have a race car?
There are several on here that race at the same tracks I do and can vouch for me.

Try telling that one to my better half.

There's nothing wrong with posting your racing life here, unless you don't have one, like you apparently.

Nobody will vouch for any race you've won, or contributed in winning. We both know that.

I race 7 days a week, most weeks. I have no problem sharing it either.
