He tried hundreds of times in my Gen 2 (more power than my Gen 4)over a 10 year period and 4 times in my Gen 4 never ran 10s .I called him 2 days ago to ask about the feasability of running 10s with the Gen 4 and he thought it was going to be EXTREMELY DIFFICULT .Smith was dialed in at 11.3 to pick up 4 tenths is tough .Not the car its the Pilots .Da under 2000 feet is not revelant its more track prep and driver .
Really years ago Evan squared up with Tony Petrogon or another TOP LINE drag racer in a stock Mustang Cobra heads up.Smith won easily =different world on stock tires.There is a reason he gets paid the money he does to test these cars.My business partner played in the NFL for 6 years (before that he was an hon mention All American at NEBRASKA).When he was playing there was always some drung at a bar proclaiming that in high school he was as good as my partner followed by your partner got all the breaks .My reply was i realize thats thats why your hear drinking beer and hes ther starting DT for the NY Giants making 7 figures ar 25 years old.Boy did the Giants make a mistake.
If you don't mind I may use that one at some time. Thats what i love about the VCA-you can always find a good laugh!
Dragon i thought the same thing with my Gen 2 over a 10 year period that car had hundreds of runs with Evan,Jamie Furman Kenny Miele behind the wheel .It trapped on a bad day 129 on a good day 132 (so the power was there .)Many many runs of 11.2-11.3 nothing under that
I part like the part MANY ATTEMPTS HAVE BEEN MADE not according to some on this topic LOL LOL
your Daddy Is An Excuse For Letting You Play On His Computer.
You got me wrong buddy not trying to control anything the threads get heated when logic and factual data is ignored. If it can be done god bless stop posting about almost getting close and just do it .If one thinks he has missed his calling ( hes is a better driver than a top line pro test driver )come out from behind the computer ,send your resume to the mags ,Ford Motor Company ect and again do it dont talk about it .
We are going to get a new sea level track in the Santa Maria / Central Coast area! That should be much cooler than the other tracks. Maybe there will be some great runs coming out of the west coast when the new track is built!
rag Racing Online::: Columns - Agent 1320 - 08/24/10Look, someone else that isn't keyboard racing or swinging off of someone else's nuts:
A 128 mph trap speed should easily get you in the 10s smith ran that in a horrible DA in my Gen 4 BUT didnt get 10s .Many(including Jamie Furman )will tell you a Gen 2 hooks just the same if not better than a Gen 4 .Yea there a ton of 11.2 so what thats not a 10 second run.My Gen 2 must have run 11.3 -11.2 twenty times
My orthopedic surg makes alot more than the average player on the Giants =does than mean he could play in the league.Why would John Coletti spend over 100k to bring two tractor trailers full of parts and 15 or so SVT ENGINEERS from Mich to Englishtown NJ TO HAVE SMITH RN A PROTOTYPE FGT if others can drive as well.Yes there are people who have extensive seat time in their part cars at may match him for a run overall consistancy no way. Take that same driver (including yourself )and give him a car hes NEVER driven before against Smith and that person will get destroyed easily..I know Evan can drive, that needs no proving. I'm just saying that others out here can also drive, they just aren't privy to the hook-ups of being a magazine editor with time to attend these tests. Evan's career is cars and magazines and testing, this comes with perks. Not all of us have the time to do this stuff. My hourly rate would also be pretty high for them to fly me out to drive cars, since I'd have to take vacation time and miss out on my normal career to do so. I'm fine with not being your hero, and you not knowing I can drive a car. At least we all know YOU can't!
I dont know didnt i tell you to go ask your daddy.
If you pay attention to what iam saying you might learn something about drag racing.LOL i only report what i actually see and experiance from watching the best in the country do something(lol i years of watching Smith at E-town test doesnt compare to you running on the strret with a Vericom but )
