I find it weird how they said 385hp and 300fp of torque?? Huh lol..... |

Yeah, they butchered that up pretty well. BTW, the sticker on my 90 was pegged at $60+k. Well, R & T wouldn't be the first magazine to do get the facts so screwed up as to make the article worthless....:thumbsdo:

BTW, RW torque on my Z at that time (and now) is shown below. If my eyes are correct, it is ~ 330 ft pounds, which would translate to around 385 ± at the crank for a stock LT5. 300 ft # is in line with an LT1/4 at the crank. Big difference. http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x...ps723fdad7.jpg |

Reaction time has no bearing on ET or trap speeds.
The clock doesn't start till you "break the beam" So you wouldn't have gone any faster or quicker. Pretty good times though! |

Reaction time would effect ET but not speed.

Maybe I'm ignorant, but if reaction time doesn't factor in on et, then why worry about reacting quickly as the tree goes down. One could just always leave on the green and never have a DQ.
