The farther you move from that point the farther off they get.

Also most are for naturally aspirated engines.
Power adders make it a little different.

Wasting your breath Dragncar, George is an old school, old fart, who can't afford a Proper Degree Wheel, (or other engine equipment), is a Bracket Racer, and hates Turbos because they are at least 2 seconds faster than his stuff.

Melissa Urist Mustang with a whimpy 1416 dynoed Twin Turbo HP 302 cid Mustang engine (Much smaller engine 200 less cubic inches, makes more hp vs George and she is an excellent bracket racer.)

With George and Jim, being Old Guys, it is all about "Cool" (Nothing More).

That is simple enough to understand, Dragncar. Make some noise, impress the grand kids.

Yes George anyone can get a good reaction time. But it is a little different doing it in a 2000HP turbo monster that is tough to stage, on the street where you can blow the tires off and end up wrapped around a light pole in a split second.
That guy can drive.

Stan, I consider some real racers, and others keyboard racers. Guess where you fit.
I am very impressed on the effort Jason puts into drag racing.

Wait, wait a minute, who is talking about "opinions". I inferred that you were a keyboard racer. You are a keyboard racer, now that is a fact.

No I do not own a race car.

The last time I made a pass at the track was almost 10 years ago.

Most of the racer I know would have problems at the track without their computer.

At what tracks did you race at in the 60's and 70's?

Now if only these T-shirt still fit.

But if some clown owns a race car that has just been sitting in the garage for years and years he would still be a racer.

In the 60s I my tricycle could run a 20 minute 1/4 mile if I got a good hole shot.
70s my Stingray could have done it in 3-4 minutes.
I thought they started that "participant" stuff recently. You know, where they give you a participant T shirt or plaque in lieu of a first or second place trophy.

Turbo car -- 5 rounds at Sonoma National averaged a .008 lite if I remember and typical 60 foot was in the 1.03 to 1.05 range -- My crew chief Program estimates over 2000 HP based on the air and weight -- just remember, if your slow off the line and still have the mph and the ET - it must be making power at the top end -

I'd believe 2,000hp plus all day! Your car rocked!

I tried to explain this in another thread.....I think most didn't understand... George was one of them.

Understand Perfectly (as it is a turbo discussion about very fast cars) not bracket racer
Roots supercharged play toys driven by old dudes.

Some of the Procharger cars in the right vehicles (Mustang) have been quick too and made good mph (200+).

John Mahovitz is the king though with his 5.70-5.80 ets at well over 200 mph.

Mr Geise was doing great with his Pontiac deal.
