Well we aren't all as fortunate to be a successful Real Estate salesman or whatever Ronnie does for a living where we can fork out 100's of thousand dollars to companies to build things for us..
Then again a bunch of 18-21yr olds built my car in my parents garage with money that I got MYSELF.. We did fairly good seeing as we went a 8.95 @ 151 (5.75 @ 125) in the 1/8th, with a 1.43 60ft). Going back to hopefully run some 8.5s if not better on the big shot.. Its still LS6 headed, 11.5:1 Compression, etc..
I think Mike Pabon of Icon Autosports has the nitrous record now with a LS6 headed car.
Matt Harlan has LS6 head and a 34x Motor..
Turley has LS6 heads.
Care to go on?
Why doesn't Ronnie ever get on here?
And if he wants to talk all this ****.. Why doesnt he put that motor in a REAL Outlaw 10.5 Chassis and put a 33x10.5W on it and come do some real racing and stop playing the LSx game, because thats not going to get him anywhere. I'm sure people like Dan Millen, Tim Lynch, Chip Haveman, and soon to be a good buddy of mine Ernie Taylor, would love to set him in his place at the track.

"real-estate salesman" ?
Anyway, I just wanted to note that the supercharged cars out-number the turbo cars there becuase like 2 or 3 of them are your shop's variations on the same setup (not including the tube-chassis GTO). That's like saying Turley ran 8.9, 8.6, 8.3, and 8.1 (AllPro heads by the way). Maybe I'm wrong, but that rarely happens
Also, two turbo's is a single power adder where I come from. They regulate the number of actual turbos in the rules because two 101mm turbo's kind of out flow one 101mm turbo. I know its crazy math, but still.

Ive heard hes into Real Estate or Insurance, and makes awesome money, which I'm not going to hate for that. I can't complain about where I come from either, but I dont brag about it everytime I can...

crazylegs.....Jason has done a great job driving the Trans Am and that particular car launches very nice I must say. And congrats are due for sure, because it is not easy to run those numbers on a supercharger.
Point is, nitrous or not, W2W is faster. Look at all the Outlaw 10.5 guys in Texas running Mustangs and you will also see them using N2O to get up on the converter at the line and then it shutting off under boost using the MAP sensor.
BTW, what size engine is the GTO? The W2W car ran it's numbers on a 352cid motor. What was that you said about being equal?

That's a good point. If I had mad money, I would LOVE to race Pro Stock!

Crazylegs, just to update that list you put up, I've gone 8.12 on stock suspension@3500lbs. I know this is petty but tell Ronnie his drag radial record will be no more after thurs. in Bradenton. You guys making the trip? Steve T.

You missed Con, Vic and Mark from Australia. They have been 7.10 with there 404 W2W engine with a glide/customer.
That makes 4 out of 11 listed powered by W2W, 3 of those customers, not shop cars. The 4th is my personal engine in a borrowed racecar(Thanks Mike!).
You guys have a fast car, I never said anything bad about your car or choice of power adder, just looking for truth in advertising!!
Kurt Coming soon: Dave Underwood 7.XX/ W2W power/customer

W2W=fair, honest, great customer service, technically heads above the rest....how many customers get called on their cell phone, after hours to discuss technical choices on a combo by other shops! I know I have by W2W. That **** impresses me!

Todd, are you sure they allow nitrous to spool up turbo cars in Outlaw 10.5? I'm pretty sure they limit all cars to one type power adder.
The way I see it, Hardcore built a class race car to compete in the events they travel to. W2W build the Casper car to get into the 6's first with a Gen III. Different goals, different cars. If Hardcore was calling out W2W, it should be a run what ya brung race in my opinion. This isn't about running in a class, its a call-out.
