It's kinda like Back to the Future - brake stand until the speedo reads 88 mph and let off the brake.

it was 12.1 with wheelhop in 1st & sideways in 2nd on my drag radials. & i think a 2.0 60' brad & some other friends were there when i ran that. once my car hooks it pulls really hard but it don't hook to good with these drag radials.

Once you hook, you are probably going to see that 127 mph you have trapped drop.

Well, I uhhh... Can someone explain this??? I have heard it before (higher mph theory due to tire-spin) but it just physically does not add up. I think it is a misconception due to other factors myself. My car trapped more mph with the better 60' time. Maybe this discussion would need another thread.
