Are you kidding? He makes 422hp, I make 340hp. I weigh 2975lbs, he weighs 3330. Both on the same suspension setup and both on a 26" tire. 82hp-350lbs = roughly .5 in E.T.

Yeah, I make 340hp/348tq now, on a Mustang dyno. I made 310 before with the shitty tune in it that was ridiculously rich. Tell me again how it is a heads up race?

haha i would say more around 55hp since you dynoed on a mustang and i thought you were going to get that car around 2800-2850 lbs...that is more like 450-500 lbs...i will give you two off the tree at most...

remember i still got a little 3600 to your 4400, i have stock gears, and still a ls6 intake...haha

Damn John. You're going to have black AND pewter stripes down the side of that car. The sponsors are going to be pissed!

Straightline's dyno is comparable to a dynojet. Within 10hp or so; ask Mike. The car weighs 2800lbs, 2975lbs with me in it.

I'll take two and steal the hit anyway. No problem. See you in March

Chris and Matt are a dead heat in my book.Matt is 350 lbs lighter than Chris,bigger stall,more gear,that adds up at least .5 second.Chris cam added 60 hp tops and thats within a nats *** of .5 second at that speed,on drag radials.Just go heads up and see.I think its gonna still be snowing by then anyway!!!
