Garyc660r, that was what I thought but this guy is serious. Look at the post I bumped. He used Nitrous I think.

 

He also said he timed with a stop watch. I'm sure there is a little operator error involved with that time. 3.24 in 350' is just not realistic.

 

just for the record i have yet to be beaten by a stock vforce.....they have hella mid and bottom, but top-end they are just flat

 

YA WELL MINES NOT FLAT ON THE TOP SO IF I AM EVER IN TEXAS ILL RUN YA

 

Even though some people have be trying to discredit those times, ( they were posted to show what could be done with certain modifications ) the stop watch was a real world tool to measure time, when we did module testing, we were getting crap about the stop watch thing as well... the problem is, that we tested 20 - 30 variables, 3 runs each, with 3 different machines, & it took all day... I think some of you snobby drag racers with your time slips or nothing attitudes need to start paying the drag strip for a days worth of runs, for tests, or get off your high horse, & realize that even if the stop watch times were off by 1/2 a second, the trends would be the same, & those times would still be at least very good...

 

Yes the times are accurate measured on a porta tree timing equipment. BTW the fastest thing in 300 feet as a quad has been an artic cat powered 2 cycle three cylinder and he ran it in 3.x and I seriously doubt a V-Force running it even on nitrous at that speed. I would have to see it as the National ATV Drags were held there memorial day and the fastest thing there turned a 3.28 in 300 feet, and I can tell you it was far from stock and on two wheels. The modded to death banshees cant even run the posted time for the vforce...I doubt to ever see a vforce on nitrous turning 80+HP.

 

I no alot of people don't believe that a V-Force can go 350ft. in 3.24 seconds, but it came from the guy that made his own custom ignition, so maybe that is how he did it?

 

I believe he is pushing more than 80 hp, I think maybe 100 hp. He had his praire up to 100-120 hp I believe, at one time. Don't let this motor fool you, it has mega power inside it.

Your test was a different deal. A stop watch can be a very useful tool to compare modifications. If the same person is operating the watch for the entire test the results shoud be precise, not accurate (there is a difference), enough for comparison. If you are talking drag race times though, times measured with a stop watch should not be compared to times using timing equipment. The reaction time alone for someone operating a stop watch could accout for 5-8 tenths easily. Look at what typical reaction times are on the drag strip. Not only that, the stop watch operator could also be anticipating the finish and prematurely stopping the timer. I personally will take Alltoys times for what they are. A tool that can be used to compare what his modifications help him gain. If you compare his stop watch times to each other you should get a good picture of what his mods are worth.

 

GE4*4 what type of surface were you racing on? THERE IS NO WAY A VFORCE went 3.24 in 350ft unless it had a jet engine strapped to it!
