unless I find him and talk to him, I will never know.
what I do know is, he was behind me


I had seen 360's around before,
pretty sure it wasn't, I went home and got online and looked at pics,
I'm pretty sure it was a 430 (but I didn't see any badge on it)

not sure yet,

before the Cam, headers, and tune I was 341/347 (hot)

I should have new dyno numbers in another week or two,
the car is currently at the tuner getting ironed out (along with a little happy gas)

Hmmm... I have 321/340 in my SS with 4.10's.

Based upon that I would probably be competitive with this F430.

Although something tells me only in my dreams.

He had those numbers before the cam/headers install but when he raced the F-430 he had the cam and headers and was on a base tune dataloging, or at least thats what I got from it. Comprable drivers F-430 probably gets the nod but hey not everyone is willing to push their cars to the limit or knows how to drive the **** out of their car so good kill and find him again when you have the juice installed!

Hey guys, I would be so quick to call the ole' . I live in the same state as Kraut, and I can say one thing, the guy knows how to drive a stick, I should know, I raced him. Also, even though I have only talked with him a few times, I can tell he's not the bs'ing type.

its very possible...most Ferrari owners can't drive their cars...especially if its the now cheapest ferrari you can buy. with a very good driver they will trap high 11's, and the eaverage driver low 12s....gee, those times sound familiar to an exhaust and cam'd LSX car doesn't it?


so to this, i say excellent kill. last time i tried racing a 360, my mom was in the car the guy wouldn't go for it

1st gear @ 50mph puts me @ 6k rpms, I shift at 7k. Talk about a jump

I can possibly see this. I just read an article in GM High Tech putting the f430 at at 12.98 @115, not 120+ like everyone thinks in this thread. Now I know that this was not a 1/4mile run, but just wanted to let you guys know that little fact

Yeah, I was thinking about that article when I read this thread. I was really surprised how slow the Lambo was . It seems that magazines always have **** poor 1/4 times, but I bet they gave that 430 more Hell than the avearge Ferrari owner would ever think about doing.
