CA,
Everything you are saying adds up.Before you were running 13.5......Now you are running 15.1......Big deal.The vettes were also running 15s. Anybody who does the math should be able to see your not lying.As far as those stupid calcuators go.Those can be used as a guidline.Those things are not carved in stone!! There are so many variations that can throw the times off.Those calculators are useless!

Ther is no reason to call anbody a liar.Last time i looked,We were all just trying to figure it out.We all have opinions....Leave em at that!

I went back to the calculator and played around a bit more. They aren't perfect, but I wouldn't call them useless.

It is VERY possible that weather conditions alone can change et by over 1 second. Factor in traction and a better launch, and a 1.5 second difference is easily explained.

 

Lightningquick, the Vettes run that way all the time. I know guys with GTP (Supercharged) and they run "slow" because of the pressure, and that is year round...

You don't run 13.58 on day and 15.1 months later at or near the same pressure.

I give up, go to your local Library (that place of information and Data before you found the net), and read about what Barometric Pressure means, and then associated it with a positive displacement pump, and you will then see my issues with a 13.58 at 23-24” Mercury

Now I see what you are saying silver .If this is so..The last time was a corrected time for sure.Ive never heard of a track doing that but ,I believe you all in your statements.
Unfortunatly I can see this topic catching on fire pretty soon. Im not getting burned You always know its a hot one when the replys shoot to the moon within a short time!!

 

Well,

2000 has spoken. I am totally lying...hehe as a matter of fact I don't even own an L. It's just a stretched out Nissan Sentra with cool emblems on it. 15.1 is not too damn bad for a Sentra. Wouldn't you all agree. My name isn't really Christy Ann either...it's Bob....Bob Marley...quit being a jerk 2000, your opinion has been noted...Geez.

CA or should I say BM

 

I'm not being a jerk, I'm just calling this one as I see it, I believe there are others that agree, but are not willing to "rock the boat" because of your prominence on the board, but I'm not them and I'm not Jerk.

No matter where this goes from here, I still have made my point.

 

NOT raising it, just answering his question.

Red '00 Lightning,
Adopted 4/19/00,
PSP Filter,
Track time pending...

 

That is a f---n RIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Well alrighty. Based on what you guys have told me I appreciate the input. I'll take everything into consideration next time I run. I am not going to argue with you 2000. I know what I ran then and I know what I ran today. Didn't post to start a fight just needed to know if there was something wrong with the truck or if I was losing it. I don't claim to be a master tech but I also am not a liar. How do I justify what I ran a few months ago? I can't, but prominence or not, I like to think that I have never given anybody here a reason to disbelieve of all things, my track times. Why did some people have the front end clunk and others not, why did some have coolant trouble and some not...the trucks are not always exactly te same, the barom pressure is not always the same here. This isn't a black or white thing. But I'll remember who I can email the next time I have a question. Coulda sworn this was F150, maybe I accidentally wound up on LS1. hehe

This dumb a$$ 2000Silverbulletonorder is simply trying to d-throne Sal, ant going to happen here anytime soon.

He doesn't even own an L (I like you also have the space shuttle on order) just blowing smoke like a bow tie.

Dearborn MI, I doubt it; I'll be seriously embarrassed if YOU are in fact a Ford employee! Unless you sweep up the floor!

Wait a minute; you make the standard Ford CRAP don’t you, not the SVT stuff! Umm do you have a big L on your fore head.

I thought so!

No that L doesn’t stand for Lightning!

For the rest of you, I apologize that you had to read my rant and raves towards this individual inbreed.

 

F1

He doesn't even have his L yet? That's rich...

CA

 

F1 and CA your comments hurt me so, wait NO They Don't, your so cool can I be like you.


Nope, I am not employeed by Ford Motor Company.
Don't have a Lightning, well ok dude.
Over 5 people on this board have seen me and my truck.

D-throne Sal, please Sal I got too - get off the pot, give me a break, I'm not selling anything, and don't plan to. I'm just suggesting you look before you leap

As if 85+% of SVT Cars/Trucks weren't regular Ford vehicles, thats what makes them so neat.

P.S. F1 You are now my new hero, your track record for making intelligent comments precedes you. You Rule dude.

 

Not trying to hurt you. You're just not worth the effort.

CA

 

AND THE WINNER IS................................................ ....................No,really guys and gals,We are not going to gain anything by fighting.I see all your points.The truth is we all should try to get along.Take it from me,Ive got lots of experience at this.Fighting on THIS board is going to get us all nowhere.It got me kicked off for a while.Lets all just take a deep breath.Oops i just swallowed an ice cube quick call 911 Damn I just almost floated away...The stupid baromic pressure is way to low

 

Barometric pressure does wierd things to the brain...;-) ;-)
