H/C TA vs new 392 challenger. (UPDATE AFTER TUNE)
#701
Its also a manual with a B&G tune which i can say is hardly a tune most likely knowing B&G, Berto you know as well as i do, the old idiots with the 392's, especially the manuals cant ******* drive for ****. Cmon dude.

Lmao!! I kno i kno...im just being a dick!!
Haha!! Thats my mentality!!

WOW!!! Would you look at that a MID 12 sec pass out of a TUNED 392!!! IMO pretty impressive BUT the know it alls all seemed to go against my opinions. Any way you slice it that isnt a mid-LOW 11 sec pass like everyone was saying a TUNED 392 would do. 109 mph??? Yea even with ranger behind the wheel that wouldnt have gotten that car into the 11's. With only 109 trap and a 12.40 id say he drove it pretty close to its full potential.
It may have been humid but make no mistake this isnt mid SUMMER in Texas. DA is only going to get HIGHER from this point on.
And here come the shoulda woulda coulda lame *** excuses... Now this TUNED 392 is a MILD tuned 392??? LMFAO If that car woulda clicked off a mid 11 you would have been screaming how TUNES do so much for these cars and how theyre DETUNED 1000hp from the factory...
Neg DA??? My car would run 8's NA on Pluto too...

The tune from B&G is not a dyno tune and based on what he said and what you said yourself about B&G tunes.....
"I did get two CEL's that I will get with Dave. One was for a rich condition (which should mean we can get more aggresive with this tune and the other was for a to long to come up to temp)"
sounds like that "Tune" really isnt that good, I would wait for the power box or the diablo thats why 392 owners are standoffish about B&G he gained no mph in the traps at all you and me both know somethings up....
he really gained almost nothing if you look at his times. He could have easily just ran that time from running at a diffrent strip think about it

Wow an 11.93 at 113, A whole pubic hair better than a car that weighs 800 Lbs more. This whole debate has become retarded. Literally, arguing over half a ******* second. Why not just wait untill there are actually fully tuned, bolt on 392's running. Seeing as we are all professional race car drivers and work for the best racing teams in the world, Id say our points and thoughts are all just nonsense.

Depends on what consider average driver. Here is on thatg is ford pro cal tune(weakest of tunes) and tire. Oh my bad he has muffler delete welded in(good for nothing but sound. And it was guys first time ever at the track.

This car above has a BS tune from ford and tires. Compaired to the 392 with the tune and DR's plus a few other things. Both ran in same DA's. That about best as we going to get right now. Both with average drivers at that. Hell guy in mustang didn't even know where to line his car up at. HAHA
#711
Thats the way it looks. This is same track the 392 guy ran his car stock. Not best track either. But I was there that day DA was right around 1400. Was same day I ran my best pass.
#712
Im was the guy in here saying to buy into this B&G hype.
Geez Nick can i please **** with these ********?! Me and you both know whats up man! Lmao

My take is this is a first attempt at a tune and it might take a bit to get it right. Also in not a fan of canned/mail tunes over dyno tuning. I suspect things are going to improve over time. At this point everyone was dying to see the results from this and a lot of hype got going.
