Waht exactly is full weight? What does the car wiegh? Will it have full suspension, cage, etc? What stall?

Assuming a weight of 3500 w/o driver and good traction. I looks like low 11's- high 10's in the 120-124mph range.

500 rwhp at full weight(3650ish) will put you in the 10.60's@128 ish with an optimum setup.

500 FLYWHEEL hp in the same car, 11.70@117 ish


Disclaimer:

These numbers depend on track condition, density altitude(1500 feet or less) and a sixty foot in the 1.40's
