202mph...not so much?

I could give a rats a$$ about top speed as long as its faster than a ZL1!!
195-196 was the top speed that day on a banked oval track, high altitude, and 90-100* temperatures. I'd say it did a great job.
So it didn't that day.. who cares. At that speed, the effect of every environmental element is multiplied exponentially. Humidity, wind, etc. 202 mph does not mean 202 mph for every car every day in every condition.
:lol::lol::bs:
I would like to see this as well. Video or it didn't happen
...do you have 2.73's?
this is as relevant as motortrend saying the brakes fade after one lap. I.E., it's not relevant, because only one source has reported this "problem". this is along the lines of top gear's review of the 2007 GT500, where they strapped it on a CHASSIS dyno, got 450HP at the wheels, and proclaimed that it didn't make the "advertised 500 (crank) HP". C&D is saying "if we can't go faster than 189MPH, NO ONE CAN!!!" even though randy pobst and motortrend have already went faster and said it very likely could hit the claimed 202MPH in better conditions.

Um... Ok dude... :lol:
4.10's and stock 5speed TR-3650
Oh noes!! The innernet bullies!!! :bash:
When was the last time you saw an IRS setup on a NASCAR entry?
No one here is a bully. We just want to see video of this claim of yours. You said you can do 180 mph in a Mach 1. Now you're saying you're doing it with 4:10's and a 3650. Let's see it.
or a top fuel dragster. hell, door slammers are running over 200MPH. not to mention this car...

Now if they had a 5mph tail wind that would be perfect......
As opposed to 3.55's and a 3650?? I'll take the mechanical advantage.
I don't have a video, guess I'm just a liar. Oh well. Back to the thread at hand...
