I had a guy with a CTSV talking plenty of smack that had the same mods or so, I am at 491rwhp and 428ft....considering the weight difference 3200 against 4100 ...who wins? Haven't seen him again and we didn't get a chance to run that night ( there were too many good looking women around to go out an race at the time lol )

I raced a tuned pulley full exhaust z06 and pulled him from a roll in my ctsv. Guessing those are the mods you have considering your rwhp.

Made around the same power as tony's. (mine was 556rwhp)

These things weigh more but they run their asses off.

The car looks even better in person. We were both getting the finishing touches on our cars Friday and it was a real pretty car. If I had the whole wife and kids thingy I would definitely own me one.
