i ran one on the highway (the guy wouldnt ******* slow down... rolled out from 70mph) and got worked pretty hard. He also wouldnt line up for to beep it off, so each time he went i was just trying to catch him...

Id say with 4.10s and a little bit more power (im at 430rwhp right now, hoping for 450-460 after a few little things) it would have been very close.

My car also weighs somewhere around 3100lbs.

Hopefulyl next time i roll up on him ill have my 150 shot

I don't think so. Those things are aerodynamic and get lost pretty quick around 140 mph.

I drilled one from a dig leaving easy on regular tires. Depends on how you guys drive. Pound for pound he has you though. It took me 500rwhp plus to drill a lightly modded one. Good luck.

Caught an older guy on the highway who, I'd guess, was in the wrong gear. Went from 70mph and kept him at my rear bumper till 120.
