Thumbs up Hennessey car running 9's @ 150 video

Turbocharged, ( and sounds like juiced ) bad ass run.
Running at 150 easing out of the hole ??? Nice...

That's an 8 second car with a good launch...

Definitely juiced - purge is quite evident...

Maybe. There is a huge difference between a 9.90 and an 8.90. Fast car nonetheless.

No doubt...



I was taking into account his RT of 0.967 on that pass...

RT is independant of ET. You can have a 20 second reaction time, but still have a 9 second ET.
On most sportsman trees a perfect rection time is .500. On the newer LED trees they adjust so a perfect time is .000.

What he said. ET clocks don't start until you leave the line.

Obviously an explanation is needed...




Of course RT has nothing to do with ET...

My line of thought was that if he honed his skills enough to cut a better RT, his overall skills would improve as well, thus allowing a better 60' time, smoother shifting, etc...thereby resulting in a better ET...


That has been the case in my situation...

FWIW...

If you are racing RT matters. If you are just trying to do a strong run it doesn't.

That's one of my favorite Viper vids but you guys are right, the RT sucked. Should've been doing around 9.7X's. BTW, John have you heard of an older game called Test Drive with a Charger on the front? They have a GTS-R Concept with specs similar to this TT and it's the fastest car in the game. It stops accelerating because of wind resistance at 233 mph.

You ever see Tony's reaction time on the 7 second pass? We stopped counting it when we ran out of pages on the calendar.
