If I remember correctly your car was almost pulling on the curve till 6900. Depending if you went with the double roller they have the marks on the rollmaster were you can advance it right from the lower gear. That would be something to do later on.

No one seem to say anything with his MPH either, that is definetly a High if not quicker 11sec MPH.


PS anytime anyone needs a driver at the track I will gladly ***** myself out at no charge
thanx Tony, a shift light will definitly help and im still learning how to launch the car with the cam because it's like trying to learn how to drive stick all over again. the mph should be higher but hey im improving

This car doesn't have an LSX intake, waterpump, pulley setup, or ported TB from what I can see. I call a big stinking pile of BS.

Once again, you can have the best of everything but if its not built right or matched its not going to run right. I know people who have ALOT more then him and guess what they are just about the same area. There is no stinking pile and if he had a decent rearend and let me stick my custom laughy gas setup, I bet you that we could walk right past ya, yes I love a challenge. Im not out to put fake numbers out, Im out to show the real thing. I speak it how it is, I could lie to them and make them happy but down the line what happens when they come back complaining?

Ask around the cars we come out with are next to nothing, yet they are always stuck racing fully built cars and somehow we still manage to come around them.

i dont think driver error is gonna make up for about 8+ mph

hell a gopher could driver a 450+ rwhp car to 116mph, nevermind the 120+ where it should be

my car is probably wont break 405 rwhp, it weighs 3500#'s, and it traps 120-122 every pass

btw this is not directed to the car owner, just stating the numbers look a bit inflated

I made 404rwhp on a dyno jet with a 12bolt and 6-speed at 3800lbs it went a best of 12.1@114 and was consistent 12.3@113 so how how much better can it get for shifting at 6k and being on a nitto?

On our red car we made 340rwhp through a th400 and a stock 10-bolt on a dynojet. The car goes consistent 118 mph in almost any air and at least 116 in the blistering sun. We've done no weight reductions and the car has extra weight in it from misc things (stereo, nitrous bottle, th400, sfc's, etc).
