Re: Nissan GTR Versus The 08 Viper
TC faster?
Go to the vette forums and read "RAnger" drag racing instructions.
1. Turn off TC
then he tells you how to do a water burnout preoperly, stage the car, launch the car, etc.
I happen to know that NO race car has TC. No top fuel cars, no braket cars, etc. Only street cars. TC launches slower than spiining the tires. Like ABS skidding the tires produces more traction. The idea of TC and ABS is to maintain control - not go fast.
That's why you won't find any of this electronic junk in race cars, and only ABS in a Viper after 2000. They compromise performance for control.
Although a TC car would leave the line faster than a 5,000rpm launch on slippery tires, I doubt that TC could do better than a 2 sec 60' time. Many non-TC cars get 1.6-1.8.
