Are you serious?
Once again we're left going back to
what you said.
I did not say that engines are not relevant to straight line performance.
You said that straight line performance is "usually the the baseline" for comparing engines.
Your statement is false because using straight line performance, especially quarter mile times, opens the door for dozens of other factors to affect the outcome. This is why nobody uses quarter mile times to compare engines.
Obviously the engine is a major factor, but it is far from the only one. If you can't isolate the engines as the performance variable, then your test isn't going to give you a good idea of how good the engine is.
How difficult is it for you to take
two seconds to actually read what I wrote? Are you purposely straw-manning my arguments or is your reading comprehension really that low?
You've spent this long trying to convince everyone that quarter mile times are the standard measure of a car's engine and then completely discount 0-60 times for the
same reasons why quarter mile times are useless.
I'll take "Going through the motions again" for $400, Alex
Once again, Nobody said that 0-60 times proved that the S2000's engine is as capable as an LS1.
Here is what was said.
Notice how we're talking about the car, not the engine?
Reading comprehension. For one second stop trying to defend the LS and actually read what people are saying. You look pretty silly when you argue against nobody.
