New performance Slant article in Hot Rod

Not particularly as much as the peculiar dynamic that turbo engines exhibit in efficiency
under load. Notice Bill's running 2.76's, and as anyone who has driven a turbo car daily can
attest, they pull stronger on a hill than on the flat. The old "trick" on the FWD cars was to
turn the a/c on "HI" at the line,it would reduce lag on the launch,and the computer auto-
matically kicked off the a/c after it detected WOT for a set duration.
I'm guessing that once Bill's car gets to that point on the track, it hits it's efficiency "stride"
and does what snails do best..PUSH!!
As to why, I have a couple of thermodynamic & mechanical theories, but I'm not 100%
sure. I'm certain there are hands on engineers that can explain the phenomenon, any on
this forum are welcome, but I think we've strayed into that other forum on this..........

I am not driving the car now, choosing to watch it, instead, for chassis-reaction and other clues, but two runs were made that day, and they were both identical, with regards to this wheelspin phenomenon; I don't think it was a "fluke." :banghead:

Beats the hell out of me...
