Default Re: But my setup has run over 100 passes!!

I normally don't mind the normal hulk threads but this ones all sort of stupid.

Especially in high powered cars 1/4 mile runs are brutal on cars, they either get no warm up time, or sit in the staging lanes for hours with heat soak running amuck

Then you do a (not so little) burnout to heat up those street tyres (mostly unnecessarily), stall it up on the brakes and wait for an eternity for the dude in the other lane to stage, then mash the accelerator on the last yellow keeping it absolutely pegged for at least 400m then it's the exact opposite, hard on the brakes (those nice cold brakes that haven't done anything in maybe hours) to make the exit lane turn...

Then make your way back to the staging lanes and repeat....


Yup, nowhere near as brutal as daily driving.
