VE SS UTE 1/4 mile times

[N81]

Reaction times don't effect your et but a small reduction in your 60' will make a 4 fold difference at the top end

I'm not being a prick here, but how would being faster to react not have an affect on my ET?
If I'm reacting in .100 of a second as opposed to .400 of a second, that will have an affect on my 60 foot time & my ET.

My ssv auto ute ran a 13 flat with a CSv otr, tune, and liquid injected LPG

What power are you spinning at the treads?
Also, autos are a lot easier to launch than a manual. Particularly in my case where I am pretty much a novice when it comes to manuals. I've had my license for 13 years & only in February last year did I go & get my manual license & the ute is my first manual (that I've only had for 8 months).

your et time starts from when your front tyres cross the last stage line. you could take 10seconds to react and get the same et time as a .01 reaction time.

Not sure on power at treads haven't had a dyno run, too many variables and don't trust the numbers. It weighed 2 tonne with me in it too. Although she has a cam dus2 headers cats cat back on now so hoping for at least low to mid 12's.

Ah ok. Thanks for the clear up.

Yeah, unfortunately plenty of workshops have been known to fudge dyno figures.

Dyno figures mean squat, drag figures is how you find the true power of a car

Well, true performance atleast.
But anyone can go in a straight line.:spot on:

Run 12.8 with roughly same mods

I wish i had a dollar for everytime i've heard this,

isnt it funny how no one who's ever been fast in a straight line says it ???

Righto.
Anyone can go in a straight line. The skill is only in the launch.
Give me a racetrack over a dragstrip anyday of the week. That defines skill & performance.
