Who is running 11’s?? So far the only person I seen run 11’s is Tork Motorsport’s ... they have track video and slip .... who else ?? I have yet to see a video or track slip of a JB4 run 11s at the track ... you would think with the amount of people that own JB4 you would see one .... again I am probably the minority that feels this way or sees it this way ....
And what happened to Wash with his big dragy reveal?
 
I seen this guy on facebook a while back with these...I seen another guy with a single tial BOV way before BMS posted there you tube video or released flange...Not sure who copied who?? I think the Tial bov is very popular and it would have been a matter time before someone mass produced a flange for it for the stinger...If this is the case then you could say that BMS copied Tork or took their idea on an intake, they just added shields...I dont think either is the case......I just think that more companies are developing and releasing parts for our stinger...

@washguy are you still posting the dragy track results in comparison to the actual track slips? I know most here would really like to see some real comparisons.

And what happened to Wash with his big dragy reveal?
Not sure he is no where to be found....Maybe someone or representative from dragy put a Hit man on him lol i am sure he had valuable information and Dragy owners were not ready to hear the truth lol.....We need to protect wash at all costs...we need to find him....
 
I seen this guy on facebook a while back with these.

I believe that dual valve setup was posted to Facebook in December, months after we posted photos of ours. And I've never seen a single Tial setup other than ours and the CX. My point was not boohoo us that our design was copied, rather the a simple explanation for why we won't be posting any more Stinger designs publicly until products are ready to ship.
 
And what happened to Wash with his big dragy reveal?

He updated the 0-60 thread. If I'm understanding his post he said the track time was faster than the dragy.

His problem with the results is that he got an invalid 0-60 but valid 1/8 on a single run.

Here's what he wrote in one of the posts:

"maybe its this beta program from Terry?..... and ill even tease yall this on a run the track was faster than dragy....of course you will have to be your own judge...im thinkin this is just a toy....itsashame that my logs didnt record cause we could dissect better...."
 
Dragy is in fact faster(or slower and more accurate) than the track clocks due to it starting the clock the second the car moves.

Can you log pedal position?
Yes i can log pedal position.

.04 of the diff is in the 60 foot which makes sense but interesting it ends up only .01 off.

Dude again he is comparing a track run , with a dragy track run at the same track ... that will be pretty accurate .... not like the people here running winter runs on streets that are not at 0 slope and claiming those times and saying oh hey I have an 11 second car .... no you don’t lol ....

When you use draggy at the track it will be pretty accurate to the track times you get .... the issue stems from people using dragy outside the track and claiming those times as valid and giving the pk impression that they will run those times at the track because you won’t ... sure I can run an 11 sencond pass on the winter with a dragy on a road that’s down hill ... but that does not mean the time is valid or that I will run 11 second at the track .... that’s all I am saying ....

I fully expect to be slower at the track. But tracks are closed right now in the north. Dragy seems accurate on ET so comparing an rwd vs rwd or awd vs awd dragy times has some merit, especially in the winter when people are adding new mods.
Also i will split the list between dragy and slip come April to give people time to get new track runs.

How did the trap speed compare dragy vs slip?
?

Terry please note. This kind of crap happened with the Optima crowd as well. Please don't let the EPEEN police detract from your efforts with this platform. We really appreciate what you have done and really look forward to what you have planned in the future along with all the other shops out there. The more players in the game tends to drive innovation people. Stop complaining and keep the criticism at a constructive level else just say thank you may I have another. /rant end

You can't pick and choose what a real 1/4 mile ET is. Dragy verified vs timeslip, it's all the same.
One of the most important variables (and what I think you're trying to say) to an ET is DA (density altitude) which NEEDS to be factored in. If I live in Atlanta and run an 11.9 with a current calculated DA of 54 feet, I am NOT going to run the same time in July when the calculated DA in Atlanta is 3522 feet.

Whats really interesting is wash said you can have an invalid 0-60 but valid 1/8 or 1/4 mil time. Meaning you can go down hill up to 1/8 and straighten out the curve to get a valid 1/4 mil time. We will have to wait to see the draggy slips to see if that true. If so its skewed. Either way. Its a fun TOY!
