[QUOTE="BillyGman, post: 2493630, member: 19962"] Well then I don't think that you're really reading them clearly, because didn't you see that I called myself a "novice" racer? Is that a sign that I'm egotistical as you claim? You have me all wrong my friend. If I was on an ego trip, then I wouldn't be trying to encourage you other supercharged guys to get drag radials, because I'd be glad that you're running in the 13's while my car is consistently in the low 12's with the drag radials. But what I'm trying to convey to you, is that I want more from you guys, because I know that your cars are capable of better ET's. I want to see you guys all in the 12's consistently. I know that your cars can do that. Atleast in the high 12's. So yes, I think you're reading me all wrong. I know that I can be brutaly outspoken at times, but I believe that while in some cases, it isn't needed, in other cases, it is to grab your attention enough to make you sit up and take notice when it's something that I believe is significant. And consistent 60' times, and therefore good ET's for supercharged Marauders, are simply dependent on the use of drag radials, so this is significant. Really, I mean no offense.Keep in mind that the 03/04 Vette that I just raced the other day would've beaten me had I not had drag radials, and that occured on the street. yes, the 4.56 gears helped me too, but they would've been kinda useless too w/out the drag radials. So there's value in drag radials on the street to to a certain extent (not as significant as on the track though). As far as your comment about my Marauder being an anomaly when it was stock, you're missing what I stated. My car ran 15.2 ET's when it was stock, but my 60' times were 2.1, and 2.2 seconds just like your 60' times are with your supercharged Marauder. Now doesn't something sound wrong about that?
