Is he the only one winning? Nope. I’m saying you can’t move torque down, or even build torque below useable RPM and not give up horsepower where it counts. That’s simple science.
He says… “ you have obviously been listening to dyno guys too much. You need to think about torque, more torque, faster down the track. You have a bigger runner head now, you have lost torque, thus the 3 loss in the 60 foot.
Maybe you can ring him and convince him he's doing it all wrong. Everyone here knows bigger heads make more power everywhere according to the self proclaimed experts.
He's obviously thinking about more Torque.
Here is the guy who mentored him:
Jerry has set 19 new NHRA National ET and MPH records, won 14 NHRA Winston Drag Racing Series Division races, been a three-time 1/8 mile National Open Competition Champion and received 20 NHRA Low Qualifier awards. His racing peers have voted him Mechanic of the Year four times as well as Driver of the Year, and the NHRA track managers and events staff awarded his car the Best Engineered Car. Jerry has been also a four-time NHRA Winston Drag Racing Series Division Champion in Competition Eliminator, TRW Sportsmen All Stars Race Division #3 Competition Representative and NHRA Winston Drag Racing Competition Runner-Up. A crowning achievement was when Jerry was the Competition Eliminator Winner in the Federal Mogul Championship Allstar race.
I'm sure Chris Hardy knows a thing or 2 for him to say what he did.
