Paolo, there is confusion. My Roe sc'd GTS went 175mph at Colc Lake Alta. 195mph in just under 2 miles. At Ely it was 180mph in the mile at 6500' last fall. Street tires etc. My TT GTS went 215mph at Mojave Mile in about 3/4 of a mile on 28" tires. http://vipernationinternational.com/2012/06/06/mojave-mile-asp-kickin/Twin's Motorsports TT GTS also went 215mph at 10 psi boost. He upped the boost, went 218.3 mph equaling 1250whp Big Red's speed. His next pass he upped the boost some more and smashed 5th gear out of his GForce trans (same trans as mine). A Hefner 1080whp (race tuned) went 113mph before his turbo blew up. A 1100bhp Veyron SS managed 201mph there that day (Hot Rod magazine).My TT GTS feels the same as my Roe car unless there is boost, then the TT goes insane. R6 slicks have no traction in 3rd gear with boost.
At 6,500' my Roe GTS went 152mph in the standing Halfmile. No tire warming, parked, drive 2 blocks slowly, idle to the start line and away you go! 176mph with shit street tires with the TT at 10psi (1100hp) - got traction in 4th I think. 176mph is in 6th.
anything is possible Paolo.Big Red Camaro has many speed records. He has his own website www.bigredcamaro.com and set several records at SSCC as well as running at Texas etc.Mojave Mile and Ely are probably the slowest miles. No burnouts, no warm up except driving and 3600' altitude at the Spaceport (where they landed the Shuttles on the west coast. Many miles use a rolling start and burnout to heat the tires. Slow cars can use Drag Radials but those are not rated to over 200mph, although I was reading that at least one track back east allows them to be run. Guy was adviced on their forum to run wrinkle slicks. Obviously not manufacturer specifications. Faster, but dangerous. Near as I can tell Texas mile is by far the fastest Mile on the continent. They can doi burnouts and are at sea level. 267mph in a standing mile is unbelieveable. But he may have had a tire company make the tires just for him ... he has more money than God I believe the expression goes. Fastest time at Mojave is 232mph and that was 1500whp AWD. With his traction he also set the Halfmile record at 200mph. If it was NHRA they would allow a 10% 'factor' for the loss of power to altitiude LOL. The altitude doesn't matter in his huge boost car. Henry ran 750whp Paxton at Mojave Mile and couldn't go faster than 195mph until he upgraded the trans OD gears. 3.55 weren't enough. I think that my 720whp Roe Viper would easily go 200+ in the mile at 6,500' with just changing out the 5 & 6 gears. Course that's a torque monster I understand that at 220mph the grille opening and brake ducts go stagnant and then vacuum. It's gonna be interesting. Each record set at each track is only the record for that track, not all tracks, otherwise the only track that counts is Texas?
The Lambos use a hig revving 5.2L engine so (from what the owner said) what they lack in torque they make up for in hp. That's why they run high boost. The Lambos have become spectacular last few years though. Mark Capeners is extremely fast and it ran 202mph in a halfmile shootout. Only 30mph faster through the second halfmile to 232mph in the mile. That beat both the 2200whp Griffin TT GTS and the Ford GT record at the Mojave Mile.I could speculate and agree with your hp drop as it goes down the road, but I don't know. Perhaps, like my TT GTS, he only has gears to go 232mph? I agree that dyno numbers are just that. If you don't like them go to a different dyno. A dyno is just a tuning tool, not a road or a track.
The one thing I agree most with is comparing event for event. My local 1/4 track makes all cars look slow on paper yet comparing the cars at the track , you can really see the difference between slow and slower.....Same thing with dyno. Dyno for dyno like me and Ted did. Not argument can be made that way.
