The heat hurt the traps, definitely. 107mph is well below some of the other runs we've seen for this car. But the heat did *not* hurt the ET. Driving hurt the ET.
I agree. Those ET's are just plain slow. Now before somebody gets all butt-hurt, I am in no way accusing IPS of sandbagging the numbers or anything. I simply think one of the shop guys should drive the car instead of this customer. No offense to the guy, but it seems like he's having some issues. If you want to see the REAL effects of modifications, you need to get as much as possible out of the car stock at the track. I can't remember if you mentioned it, but is TC off completely?
