Post your 10 second combo

3450 with me in it. 10.92. Wrong gears, wrong convertor. I know there is more in my car, how much more...idk. Based on what hot metal wrote, My car should go 10.40 or so. that may be possible with the CORRECT convertor, which is a 5,000 stall speed which I won't run on the street.

You can math and theory the question all day but at the end of the day the timeslip won't lie. The computer doesn't take into account for any real world complications like headwind, mechanical resistance, stall speed, driver error, temperature, humidity, rear axle ratios, transmission type or ratio, etc.

hopefully, a driver takes a car out several times in differing weather conditions. Then its pretty easy to figure out what the car runs.
None of this takes into account a poorly put together combo that doesn't run as well as it should.
A typical “ well sorted” combo should run what its supposed to.
Think Dwayne Porter has posted on here several times ET’s should be easily with 10% of an accurate dyno.
I have no idea why you wouldnt run a 5k flash vert on the street. To think you can't is an old wives tale. I have on every car i have had, with zero issues. Converters these days have come a long ways from where they were years ago.
Chances are, they are better than a typical 10 inch 3500 “street” vert, which are typically way less efficient than an 8 inch is.
Btw..does your car weigh 3180 or 3450, you have posted both in this thread. Big difference
