SS/Sc vs SS/TC

Both bone stock except for the SC has DR's. Given equal drivers. Who's the winner at the end of the quarter mile?

I thought it was a pretty simple question. The real question i was asking was can the TC overcome getting out launched by the SC by 1-2 cars by the end of the 1/4th

What does a stock T/C put down? I thought it put out around 230whp.

yeah i think its like 245( most) but i would think if the tc can hook up descently he would get the sc... but with the DR's the sc should hook up amazingly( if its an ok driver) and that would be a very good race... you would never have a perfect driver to compliment the other ( one eather shifts faster, one know when to shift to stay in powerband, one launches better, one does the sc bypass mod( no boost drop between shifts) lol sorry for the long awncer but i would say heck of a race.

Considering the best SS/TC has gone stock is 13.5, and the best an SS/SC has gone is like 14.0, I dont think with equal drivers the SS/SC can overcome a 1/2 second difference with just DR's. I think it will be close, but the SS/TC wins in the end. I dont think DR's make that much of a difference except knocking off a few tenths in the 60'. If with DR's the SS/SC can knock off about a 1/2 second in the 1/4 mile, then I should easily be in the 12's with some DR's with my mods.

I'd put my money on the SS/TC. As others have said, the TC has a good half second advantage over the SC. Slicks aren't going to shave that much time off I'm afraid.

ss/sc, drag radials on the ss/sc would make that ss/tc look silly.

drag radials/slicks shave a lot more than what you people think. Especially on a FWD car with instant power from a supercharger.

So you think if you had the driver of the SS/TC who ran 13.5 stock, and then you had the guy who ran a 14.0 in his stock SS/SC with DR's you think the guy in the SS/SC could run a 13.5 stock? Oops, I almost forgot, you said the SS/SC with DR's would make the SS/TC look silly, so that means you would expect a stock SS/SC with DR's to run 13.2-13.3 atleast?

so you think a stock ss/sc with dr's will run mid-low 13's? bull. I bet you can't cut below a 1.8 60' with a stock ss/sc on drag radials WITH THE BEST OF DRIVERS. To make a 99-100mph trap car run a low 13 you're gonna need lower 60's than that. If ss/tc's are consistent high 13 sec cars dipping into mid 13's sometimes, it'd be pretty close, but i'd bet on the ss/tc. In no way will the ss/sc make the tc look "silly"
