the speed you reach in a quarter mile dosnt really mean all that much

Trap speeds areusually the mostimportant part of the 1/4 mile actually. there are many more factors that effect your ET(mainly driver related)than there are that effect your Trap speed.
and trap speed is what will give you an idea of what kind of power your car makes..
have you ever heard anyone talking about there car and it goes something like this,
Dude 1: 500hp eh? lets see some dyno charts or track numbers if you're going to talk like that..
Dude 2: i don't have a dyno yet, buy my car trapped 127 a couple weeks ago..
Dude 1: ok, cool, sounds like a beast

i wouldn't say it falls on its face at 45(maybe if your in second gear) the k03 pulls strong at 80 it just depends on the rpms your sitting at

yeah, i understand how speed effects 1/4th mile. but there is more factors in it than hp. gearing is more important in your speed. you ever seen a car do 12s quarter at 90 mph. it didn't reach a super high speed but it got there quick enough so that it ran most of the track at 80+

yes, i have seen many cars do that. i've seen a supra run a 10.xx at about 80mph before. but that has nothing to do with what i was talking about..[:@]
