What do you by not much? A few tenths of a second is a lot.

true, a few is alots but 1 is not


maybe now he run 14.39 with that setup and DR, but if he kept practicing, maybe the best he can get with that setup is 14.10 or 14.0 if he's did alright. but it will very hard to hit 13.9 or less with just that setup even with DR.

DR will hurt the top end power if the car doesn't have that much power, but the car will jump off the line quicker.

And for the guys on H-t there friends of mine, they just like being assholes lol
Slicks give as much as second off....so maybe 12.8 N/a
