Classic 69 camaro potential. 230+mph in a 69.



So I see no reason why nelson couldnt take that 2000hp 69 to TX2k

Yup.......Nelson can do whatever he pleases.......

That guy doesn't just build massive powerful engines. He can fab anything and he can build any purpose built car just like any factory can or shop.

He needs to use an 1985 Trans Am, one of the most aerodynamic cars ever made......and just put his proven 454 SBC TT or the 454 LSX TT....2,500 HP.

Set it up for roll racing and GOODBYE UGR Lambos.......AND AGAIN....at less than half the price and full weight with full interior with A/C.......daily driver.

Lol

^^^That would be lovely. I would to see something like that though to see RWHP vs AWD on crazy HP cars.

How about the Nissan Skyline GTR All-Wheel Drive cars.......the older ones from the late 1980's.........aren't they strong enough for 1,800-2,000 AWHP set ups.....?

the MT900 with a 2500 TT LSX should hook pretty well and will have decent aero and be a lot lighter

setting up the drivetrain to be strong enough and plant that kind of power is WAY tougher with RWD, but with enough of a HP advantage, you can run it down on the big end.

true the track surface on the flying mile is not a drag strip, but with boost by speed and getting some down force on the car, you should be able to run it down on the big end with enough pop out back

I dont understand why everyone keeps talking about Nelson. Lets talk about some one who has accomplished something in racing like Pro Line Motors.

Anyone can bring in the right people to build the respective parts to make a perfect roll racer.......why not talk about NRE who builds the best boosted engines on planet earth with the highest level of technology and reliability...?

Only makes sense. A boosted car is what's needed to run top end races and roll races....so might as well start with the best boosted engine builder.

Fact is......any good shop can build a RWD roll racer to beat the most powerful UGRs.....just takes money and using the right people for each specific specialty.

Lambo does exactly this....but they do it with the use of one factory and all of their hired engineers who specialize in their respective expertise. and they own their own wind tunnel. That's why the car is so damn expensive to buy.

NRE or another shop like them can build a better, faster/quicker car for half the price......aftermarket.

If that was truly the case LMR would of beat the car on the street. We will see how the LMR car does at TI this weekend.

Who's LSx motor have they built? I happen to know of a motor company who builds a pretty nice motor!

Why do people go so nuts over NRE they have also been known to do some hack work just research them on yellow bullet. There are several other just as if not more competent companies who build fast race and street cars. NRE doesn't have hardly any track exposure to back up all the numbers he claims. And all their cars do is spin in all their videos.

LOL at this whole NRE circle jerk. It's pretty ridiculous considering all of their videos show nothing but tire spin dyno numbers and there are no races with their cars that actually take place to back anything up at all.

The NRE think escapes me also. They do absolutely nothing for me whatsoever.

I thought that LMR Vette already beat the UGR cars last year.......?

I race against the fastest LSx cars in the country. I've never heard of anyone running their engine. Not saying they are bad , but just wondering if they are the best where are they???

LS6427

NRE, LPE, AIr-Flow Tech, etc......who gives a damn who builds the engine. This is all about traction, the engine is the easy part. NRE just builds the highest HP boosted set ups I've ever seen, and with sickening reliability. There's a few of NRE cars down here in South Florida and they are wicked badass.

Are they specifically set up for roll racing from a 60-70mph punch....NO. They are just sick high horsepower cars that will run for years and years and years without issue and have all the creature comforts.

Build one specifically for the 60-70 punch and it'll do just fine with all that NRE power.

.....or other builder doing the engine, doesn't really matter. NRE is just talked about a lot when it comes to HIGH POWER........because he makes it time and time again.

You ever race a Gayle Banks twin turbo powered car......NO.

But Gayle Banks also makes the baddest *** TT set ups you'll ever find. An engine doesn't make a race car, power is easy to make. It's the CAR.......

you're comparing gale banks to a guy that is knocking on 7s?

Of course.....Gayle Banks can build high HP boosted engines....which is what this topic is all about........
