Knock retard will kill the speed of a car with the improper supporting modifications.

in the first part of the video, a stock gtp keeps up perfectly with a gtp with a 3.25", intake, exhaust

assuming that information is accurate, it would be a very reasonable assumption that the modded gtp is experiencing excessive KR thats slowing it down enough for a stock gtp to keep up

More proof can be found in my time slips from the track last year:

theorys prooven 657082_41_full

Using smaller SC pulleys without supportive mods and/or tuning = little or no improvement.
