Slow times for lottttttttts of HP?
So I was reading a Mustang magazine today at the mall and there was an 05 GT as a story.
From what I remember it had a Procharger F-1 Blower, 2 core intercooler (may have been 3), set at 20PSI, running on 20x9's in front and 20x10.5's in rear. Had 285/35/20 BFG KDW2s in rear. Put down770RWHP and 640RWTQ (somewhere in that vacinity) I know they weren't DR's or slicks, but still they were slow times I feel. Time were an 11.87 (might have been 11.78). That seems awfully slow for that much power and a centri blower that'll just keep pulling. Discuss.... |
your forgetting the huge ass rims it has its going to kill his times dramatically

That's crazy, lol |
His times may not be great for the mods he has, but at least he was blinging!
|
With 700 hp, I can tell you his traction was limited for about 300+ feet.
|
yeah, i don't think they make a slick for that size tire and any drag radial is not going to hook well with 700hp+
|
It's the rims definately! Not only are they heavy as hell, but they don't hook for crap. The side walls are too stiff. If you want a fast car, don't get bigger rims. Those rims are taking a full second plus off that car.
|
traction case in point.
|
its all a loss of traction.
|
Maybe the same people that put the gt500 together helped out on making this one...:eek:...
|
60' is everything for a good ET. without traction you can fly through the traps, but run a high ET.
|
thats the livernois GT and it was on streettires, you try putting down all that HP on street tires
|
definatley NOT the rim size. GI Joe ran a 12.85 wth his N/A 05 roush sittin on 20 inch rims.
it's loss of traction for sure. |
traction + driver mod = good ET
he's missin one...or both |
well my car has decent hp for an NA GT and I get slow track times because I can't hook anymore and i granny shifted it lol
