From a roll??? A 60mph roll??? Look, the next time somebody wants to race "from a roll" tell you will when John Force does. And when they say "Who?" you'll know who you're dealing with. "From a roll" is lame and means squat. Every drag racer will tell you that the race is won in the first 60 feet. If they want to drag race, then drag them. If they want top end, then go top end. "From a roll" is for ricers that claim to have too much HP for their front wheel drive. Slam them WS-6.

I RACED ONE FROM A ROLL AND PULLED AWAY FROM IT UP TO 170MPH. THEY ARE RATED AT 3.9 0-60 AND 11.9 1/4. THEY ARE ALL WHEEL DRIVE SO THEY MIGHT BE TOUGH IN 1/4 BUT , THE DRIVER COULD MAKE THE OUT COME OF THE RACE. ANYTHING AFTER 1/4 SHOULD BE VIPER. MY CAR HAS HEADERS AND EXHUAST, TUBES AND FILTERS, SO STOCK TO STOCK ?

As a side note in a car & driver comparison test in 96 or 97 , almost every car tested took roughly the same time 0 to 120 as it did 120 to 150 mph , the exception was the Twin Turbo & the GTS which took less than 3 seconds!.In that test the Porsche was slightly faster. A year earlier, in the same type of test , the RT10 was around 8 seconds slower 120 to 150 than the TT. I have ran with many 911 TT's on Road Atlanta's 5200 ft back straight & if both cars are well driven, it is a very , very close race. A 993 or 996 Turbo is a very fast car & a worthy competitor. If you dont think so you are kidding yourself.
