like it says....Lets weed this list out! less than 12.9 sec only.

Ill go first. 12.291 @ 107 mph.
moroso speedway. west palm beach, fl.
98 Impreza L

 

Just wanted to let you know.

"<" = less than
">" = greater than

 

so if
"<" = less than
">" = greater than


then 9>12?

or would 9<12

it depends which way they are facing.... idiot

 

A math lesson.

The context in which you wrote your TITLE ">12.9" is read "GREATER than 12.9".

It is true that in the post you wrote "Lets weed this list out! less than 12.9 sec only." I was only trying to clarify that the way you wrote your title was incorrect.

It is also true that when you have two numbers and need to determine which is greater or lesser that the location of the numbers determines which way the symbol points. But in your case you wrote ">12.9". Which is read "GREATER than 12.9" Here is a question for you then. What number would you have to place in front of ">12.9" for the equation to be true?

i.e. ( ? > 12.9 )

Wouldn't the number have to be GREATER THAN 12.9 for the equation to hold true? You see, when you write ">" or "<" before a number (not between numbers) that it is read as ">" greater than and "<" less than.

Maybe Dr.Math can help you clarify this if you don't understand it yet. See here:
http://mathforum.org/library/drmath/view/58433.html

or if you need to see how the symbols are written and interpreted:

You see in the context of how you wrote your title, I am correct.

Who's the idiot?

 

^^^what he said is so correct.....

 

Although you're correct, and he had no right to bastardize the greater than/less than symbols, I don't think anyone comes here for math lessons. :-D With that said, I think anyone who posts here should list their modifications, because to my knowledge there are no stock 2.2 litre L's running 12.x second quarter miles. So what's under the hood, impreza25rstn?

 

with that said, when you post anything here in this forum...people will correct/comment on what you post, just deal with it and don't take it so personal...

 

the alligator mouth opens towards the bigger number

9<12

Think thats it.
Car weighs about 2950-3000lbs. with me in it.

best time to date is a 12.222 @ 108.5 mph with eveything listed above
ran at moroso speedway in west palm beach florida in jan-feb. like 70F outside

 

thats 1/8th mile right? cuz theres no way 108 is a 12.2 quater mile trap speed. cars that run 108 trap for quarter mile is a high 12 second car. not low.

 

[QUOTE=MBasile]the alligator mouth opens towards the bigger number



lol...the alligator eats the bigger number. feels like i'm in second grade again

 

What about ^ and what not?

 

^ is for exponents or for sample probabilities...i think

 

ummm... no that would be a low 12 sec 107.95 mph run. 12.222 @ 107.95. done at moroso speedway in west palm beach florida.
car weighs 3000lbs with me in it. full interior 17" rims sti wing. 4.11 gears 5speed. veilside body kit. any other questions.

 

the only way to finish the debate is to show slip, but from what I recall running at Moroso, you dont get one.

and I love the math lessons, need to take a test next week and am ready now.

I miss Florida, its always warm, nice girlies at the beach, and 93 octane.
