I have heard that term. But I honestly don't believe that it can be an absolute night and day difference like you are insinuating. I can see how one would be slightly faster or quicker than another. But not as drastic as one may think. That's just me though.

I am starting to agree with you.

I would take you up on that, but to travel up there or you travel down here I don't think is fair, unless we met halfway or did it when one of us happened to be in the area.

One car may dyno 375 HP then other 355 HP. Therefore one being a little faster or putting down very good power. As far as driving goes there was no doubt Derek could drive his car. His shifts were quick and clean. As the first run shows we were neck and neck, other runs as I noticed at the top of each gear I pulled, I hit 5th every run but let off seconds into it. Never ran it out. As far as our two cars they are indeed same mod and same setup.. (not exactly but you know what I mean) so should be within reason of each other. Again your upper rpms were no doubt where your car was falling I'd datalog and go from there. Wouldn't quiet start jumping the gun and pointing fingers. Again, great runs. And we will run them again soon

I apologize if it seemed like I was pointing fingers. I'm not trying to take anything from you. We were definitely about equivalent in driving, from what I could tell. Only way to know would be internal cameras in the cars. Haha

I need to get my laptop com fixed first before I can datalog. It currently doesn't charge the battery, or recognize AC power, and the battery has like 5% battery left, which isn't enough time to run a datalog.

Northstar is better prepped. Many people agree.

Derek I didn't mean you were pointing fingers at me or insulting me. When I said that I ment don't blame your tune or intake yet without data log. You and me are all good man lol. I'll be out at Ennis next Saturday as well getting my ass kicked by ant speed lol. Perhaps we run them on the track? Your tires alone will hand my ass lol. Will be great though.

Do you not see anything other people have posted about Northstar? Rebelracer even said the track is coming apart. It is known they don't prep for test and tune sessions, so I'm not sure where you are getting your info from.

Say what? I don't know man. Its either my stock tires are hurting me that bad or the track prep is terrible. I have in car footage of me going sideways on the track in 3rs gear.

Sounds like a plan. I still spin them, but you are definitely in a far less position with those tires. Lol
