agree you go there. But as I like seeing what do at normal tracks as well. Which heard one just went 11.8 at one the regular track in a manual. Guy will be going out again with little better conditions. He's hoping to get mid 11s. He knows not going to break records. He has a 1500whp c5 for that. Lol
I come off hard..but thats me. As said good job. I would like to seen at different track cause naysayers will say just that. Well only cause it was at said track. |
Here ya go.....
"Flash speed," on the other hand, is very different. Flash occurs the instant you release the foot-brake and the rotating inertia (which is "stored" in the engine-flexplate-converter) is released. This flash speed can be anywhere from 500-2500 RPM higher than the foot-brake-stall speed. In a racecar, the typical “flash –the-converter process” usually works like this: Stage at idle, hold the brakes with one foot and "flash" the converter (flooring the gas pedal with the other foot, and simultaneously releasing the foot-brake) the instant the last yellow on the Christmas Tree comes on. The sensation is a form of “slingshot” effect as the car leaves. Some cars work better by flashing the converter. Some combinations work better by outright stalling the converter. Some work better with trans brakes. Others work better off the foot-brake. |
Sorry, I have only drag raced stick cars. Never heard of a flash, thought maybe it was a retune for the converter.

Yep. A thread was started tonight by a zee owner (his words) to badmouth the textured stuff in the wheel wells of the C7 :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
The naysayers are going to reap exactly what they sowed... :thumbs: |

Better to ask then pretend you know everything like others on here.:thumbs:
......That...coupled with the fatties on the rear of his GS...... ....creates a mismatch.... ....This mismatch confuses the mind at times to think it is all knowing.. .....I have prescribed heavy leg exercises like squats to bring balance back. ...or removal of fatties out back to something less gargantuan....:D |
