Are these results for the roll racing starting at 60mph and going for 1600 feet? If so, what's the expected mph for a C6 blower ca with 800 whpr and a manual transmission?

Takes about 1khp to crack 160mph. 1,300-1,500hp for 180mph+ and 1,800hp+ for the 195-200mph+ trap. Just rough estimates that's all. HP to weight and putting power down plays a bigger factor to win.

Yeah my best was a 169 in my TT GS. Figured out what was going on when we got back to the shop. Pro efi was going into full boost cut on my higher settings. Was only making 1250rwhp on my highest setting cause it was dumping boost cause fuel pressure was dropping. New hat and pump are OTW. We only made pulls on waste gate before TI. Didn't have time to dial my car in as david feldmens car was our priority. Had a good time either way though.
You were there? Would've like to have met you if so.

In the context of the GTR the first post was about, in a non runway event I put ~2+ cars on a gtr that had ~870whp and trapped 150mph in the quarter mile.. 60-~160. So he would probably trap around mid 150s vs the 207mph ams did.
I'd say if you get into the 150's that's pretty good for 800whp

i really wanted to see what i could hit this time with more power but just wasnt in the cards.
and HEY.. even though my car wasnt there i got to take out my frustration by keeping fools BEHIND the line so that the Speed guys could see the traps.. I made myself useful

Yea, it's a reality check when you see the mph that some of these cars do.

at the 1/4 mile you Launch and are in power pretty much all the way down the track.. @ ti, from a 60 roll often you are not at 100% optimal RPM.
60 mph is around 3600 rpm for me in 3rd with is TERRIBLE for a centri car.. i would hit it and literally sit and wait for power to come on.

From what i have seen 1/4 mile traps dont directly equate to Ti traps..
at the 1/4 mile you Launch and are in power pretty much all the way down the track.. @ ti, from a 60 roll often you are not at 100% optimal RPM.

Any passes from the blue beast TURBOTUNER20V?

most cars trap 10-15mph higher than they would in the 1/4mile. depends on power band and where you make the hit in the launch area.

I put 28" (really 27.2") et streets on the back, and it helps, but now I have to do that 60 hit in second gear which adds another shift into the mix (basically right away too)

I lined up with a Black horse turbo @ 60 with my f1X.. and he put 2 cars on me on the hit while my blower was deciding to make boost or not..
im hoping my 15s hook 2nd.. other wise screw it.. zr1 6060 time.

factory catback, AC.. sounds like a street car to me I will say that Ti is bar none the most FUN automotive event i have ever been a part of. The TSS guys put together an amazing event.. Several people i know who have been to most of these type of events ultimately compare them to Ti and like Ti better.
my ONLY complaint about Ti...
it only happens once or twice a year
