Default 3300 Raceweight and 9's

What kind of power does it take to run a 9? My car should make around 650-700 rwhp through a turbo 350 with a 4000 nitrous stall and 3.73's. Is that enough to get there

It should be plenty if the car will 60'... 700rwhp is enough to go an 8.9X in a properly set up car...

My car went go a 9.90 making around 530 (150 shot) to the wheels at 3250lbs w/ a low 1.4X 60' .....

Has since gone a bit faster in the 1/8th at that setting with a glide that was slipping all the way down the track and letting out on the latter 330' ...with a worse 60' due to worn out tires...

580rwhp (TH400/9") @ a little over 3300lbs = 9.70s with mid 1.3 60's off the foot brake. 3.70 gear and 28" tires goes through ~ 6650rpm.

650 actual rwhp should get you there easy..

You could hit mid 9's if you can hook it.

Yeah, that should definately be enough if you could put the power down!

On just a 150 shot (596 rwhp through turbo 400 and a 4000 nitrous stall with 3.73's in a 12-bolt) w/ 3500 lb raceweight I went 9.95 @ 136.xx on only a 1.42 60'.
