As far as track conditions...i would think they would have a greater impact on ET then trap speed.
I am not dissing on you goodfella just stating my experiences.

How do I know. I have not seen my car for 20 months.
Dave says the bushings make the car run like it is on rails. Should help cure wheel hop too.
Whatever JIMLAB says you can take it to the bank. He's working on unbreakable differential parts for his monster FD V8 now. That will be a winner, if he does it, for all the high-performance drag racers.

Yeah, it seems this happens alot in my threads. Maybe it's just me
The main benefits I have realized from the fans:
cruising around at speeds below 60mph I see the temps drop down around 5 degrees.
At the road course it definitely helps---the more air, the better when you're constantly on it. My intake temps don't skyrocket as high.
At the strip, the main benefit is to spray water into the duct and have the fans suck it through the fins in between runs. Helps keep the IC from heat soaking so much. By doing this I can keep my intake temps manageable---around 40-50, whereas they used to jump to 70 after repeated runs in the texas heat.

Check my list of mods and tell me what my next experiment is all about?
If I'm right then many will want that option too. Maybe even JIMLAB, he's interested in the results. I'll have the results in the next month if KDR comes through and finally gets my car finished.

(2) Are you familiar with drag racing?
