So your saying your Shelby should be a 130+ trap car ?

automach1

Idk what it is as it has not been to the track with the current setup. I do know that the 5.0 went 130 last time at the track on a soft launch.

I was going by the neon run because on the gt you got the hit clearly and he seem to stop your pull and shortly he mis shift. My car is about 2900lbs with me in it and I should be around 460-480whp and I don't think my car is a 130mph car maybe 127-129 at best. Your car runs very good

Well for the 2nd time I didn't take the hit. He started in 3rd I was in 2nd. The sound you heard right before I went wot was me evening up as he was creeping away. I agree though he did slow/stop my pull. If he hits 4th and we run it out. It would have probably stayed with me about 1 out for the rest of the race.

The neon was 24xxlbs with driver for that run. I appreciate it man. It seems to do ok for being a pig

Shouldn't a TVS GT500 make more than 590?

automach1

A lot of them do.

Neon was dissapointing

automach1

TVS 2.3 on 15psi is making more than 590.

you sandbagger you.

480whp in a light 99 chasis should be hauling dick. But that auto probably saps alot of power.

automach1

Lol It does haul dick.

2400lbs with driver at 480whp should have ran a lot harder than a 590whp Shelby. You either have a lot more power or he has a lot less power.

No it's not the car is still on the stock t/b, inlet, exhaust manifolds, catback (at the time of the dyno). Then take in account the gears/325s, it being hot/humid down here, and a not so generous DJ.

automach1

The neon runs hard not sure why there is complaints

LightningTeg

It shouldnt have trouble with a bolt on GT500.

automach1

Well it did

Because the outcome of this race is bullshit if what you've said is true.

Everyone is being nice about it but either you dont know, dont care or are flat out lying.

24xxlbs with 480whp is 133mph car
3800 with 590rwhp is a 123mph car


So maybe that crackling sound WAS you getting the hit?

honestly, I think its a mixture of him exaggerating the neon and sandbagging his car. Im also sure he isnt 3800lbs. its fairly easy to get down to 3600 with some wheels, cat delete, etc.
