Tame my 4-speed Stroker....
The T/A has numerous times.
It doesn’t go any quicker because leaving higher changes the dynamic of how the motor gets loaded.
The factory trans aren’t geared optimally for high rpm launches with high traction.
Something has to give(tires or clutch), or it bogs........or breaks.
When you put sticky tires on it, and leave high...... and it hooks......it bogs.
Also, the AAR had drag radials on it, and still left pretty low.
I do understand what it takes to get a stick car to “work”.
My feeling is, for Jpars goal of running in the 11’s with a streetable combo, it might be cheaper and easier(as well as being easier on the car) to figure out how to get it done without the monster hole shot.
My point was to show you don’t need a killer launch to run in the 11’s with a docile streetable combo.
But I’m happy to sit back and watch it play out.
