Never ripped before, but just downloaded Clone2Go DVD Ripper, but it's only an Eval version (full is $40) so I can only do 3 minutes or something like that.

It's a 16 min clip it looks like.

Its not always about max all out power (at redline) its about the application of that power to the ground based on the way the driver drives and the track and available traction; the throttle is not an on off switch, its a rheostat.

On a course where there are a lot of long straight; then a car that produces a lot of top end power will win on the straights however on a twisty course a car that makes more are under the curve from the shift point/apex will win.
So on a balanced track both cars will be for the most part equal.

It really comes down to how the driver drives and where he likes his power to be applied; straights or coming out of the corners.
The way I drive and how I control the car; races are won by out breaking ( all balls no brains ) and out acceleration post apex.

I would have loved to have been invited however there is no way I would have been able to make the car to be eligible within the rules without spending a bunch of money. There has been too much other stuff done to the car to improve corner G’s and traction.

^Yeah that is why I would want the roots having all the instant torque and much broader powerband. However would be nice to be able to go up to 400+whp with it like the Vortech SOS etc.
