This figure was posted in another forum and this sounds very wierd. Is this possible?
I don't want to call :bs: on someone without asking around first.

He has an AWD car.Tarp02GT said:
Ive heard of supras doing that. Not AWD cars though. How do you not have decent traction with AWD?
I started asking questions and he got pissy.
I've seen it. If he rolled out instead of launching, it could work.
Could be a super heavy car maybe? My 95 GT with a built 306 and D-1 supercharger ran a 12.0 1/4 mile @ 124 mph and my 8th mile time for that run was a 8.0 @ 90mph but I was on Nitto drag radials and launched from idle.
I have a superheavy car that ran a 12.2 @ 114. That's the reason I asked in the first place.StangJason said:
He got pissed at me asking questions anyway. So I called him a shithead. ;-)
It all depends on the driver, tires, motor, gearing, weight, boost setup, etc. So many variables that no one can know for sure without seeing a timeslip.
Someone I know with a 408 whp FWD car, roughly 3,000lbs, stock differentials and drag radials:
2.2 60'

on a second run:
2.1 60'

I say it's possible but he could also very well be a shithead so you might both be right. ;-)

maybe missing a shift? then finding it and getting back into it
lots of power little of traction.
lots of power lots of weight.

It's entirely possible. I've personally done worse on stock tires :lol1: The worst I've ever seen, in person no less, was a friend of mine who refused to put sticky tires on his single turbo Z06 for fear of breaking shit. He was running michelin pilot 315s I believe, and I videotaped him go 12.0@139 at Norwalk. Put on ET streets, and went 11.1 practically still spinning at the line. He has a TT Viper now as well...
Its like that old assed joke.
What do a 500 HP and a 1000 HP Supra have in common?
11 sec time slips.

is it that important? who gives a flying fock?
Was it a Porsche?
Even w/ AWD some can't be launced hard...Actually they can, but may leave parts on the ground.

No, it's a Talon with a "bad stock clutch". I know because I was looking at the other thread where he claimed it.
Off - topic.
I was about to run you a new one about how much an idiot you are and that no one cares when I saw your avatar....... I thought you were the ****, wait, let's say "fella" w/ the altima w/ stickers and 20's...... then I seen your name.
topic - NOT possible with an awd car. Not saying the guys flat-out lying, maybe the track is messed up, but 12.1 @ 128 in an awd car is not possible.
