What a punk little biaaaaatch. I don't think MistaX likes IMing me. We had a lil' incedent back in the day on AIM.

 

[Deathhawk]

Oh god they are rolling starts

 

[Josh]

Sorry I signed off AIM, but it's been a long ass time since I've IM'ed anyone and I'm not used to typing all fast, and switching back and forth between winwos and ****. I haven't used AIM in 5 or 6 months probably.

it's possible...

Eddie Bello, a long time drag racer in a 911, usually ran 9 sec. quarter miles on street tires... that 911 was able to kill about anything on the street...


sadly, though, Bello's in jail, and no one knows where the 911 is...

 

[Deathhawk]

Why would anyone race with a rolling start? That defeats the purpose.

 

[Deathhawk]

But of course since it is their site, they want their car to look good....

Considering his 1/4 mile times, it wouldn't be too hard for him to beat one from a stop, but he would get beat in the 1/4. A little past the 1/4 and he'd start pulling. He also has problems with traction, as does anyone with 800+hp.


It's still impressive him beating a 1300cc bike, even from a roll.

it's a different type of racing... i can't even get why race on the street, so from a roll or from a dead stop doesn't make any sense to me no matter what.

 

[Deathhawk]

Pretty empressive stuff either way!

 

[Josh]

Most of the "kill stories" on the internet nowadays are from a roll. Seems people don't race from a stop much.

bikes are quicker to accelerate, but they lose it after a certain point... aerodynamics play a role too, at a certain speed...

 

[Deathhawk]

Depends what bike though too.

 

[Deathhawk]

I need forty more measly posts! COMON!

Exactly. That's why it's believable when people say they beat 600cc bikes from a roll in Vettes, 420+ Supras, etc. Cause aerodynamics starts kicking the bike's ass at higher speeds.
