Uh a roll would be our strongest ally given our shitty launches so why doesnt that make sense? It just seems to me we have alot of advantages from a roll already, no-lift shift pretty much makes turbo lag nill, given another 50-60 hp in a sub 3k pound car is a pretty decent gain. Im not saying your gonna pull 6-7 cars, but given the situation that certainly doesnt mean you wouldnt be able to either.

Apparently you have not rollraced an SS/TC vs a GT then. It never stops pulling in the top end. Those small car lengths do eventually form bus lengths. If I raced to my top speed, it would be a 747 length (Tuned of course).

Stock, it takes a bit to start pulling on a GT, but it does happen. I know because my most competitive friend drives a 2007 GT. (He also get beat by my buddies stock LS2 GTO AUTO.)
Which I also outrun. Just because a few cars do best condition runs, does not mean they can do it anywhere.

And the Ion RL is the same thing as an SS/SC, thats like Micheal Jackson being offended on being called white.
