Why don't you guys try the 1/8th mile? Rules for cages are alot more leanient.

I know, 1/8th mile sucks, but you can still get a good idea whos faster.

His car is faster in the 1/8th mile. Jonathan (spelling?) would win that race heads up in the 1/8th mile. He is better setup for the 1/8th mile.

Well did a little research the fastest 6-spd All Motor Vette ran this in good air, compared to our 70-72* weather.

Brent eb02--vs--Matt's 99C5
60 ft....1.43-----1.57 (spinning)
330.....4.23------4.42
1/8.....6.54------6.792
mph..105.62-----105.75
1000...8.48------8.82
1/4..10.19-------10.55 (letting out)
mph..136--------128 (letting out)

Matt said when he looked at his Heads up he was at 135mph, so he let out because he thought he was done with the track.

Major difference his car makes 600rwhp, 3.90 gears, weighs 2900lbs, etc.. His also was built for being a all motor car. Matt's car makes 530rwhp (needs a tune update (11.8:1 a/f)), stock gears, 3200lbs.. and a motor built for a 300 shot.

Coming soon mid to low 9s at 150-155mph.

Thanks Steph Cemo for the wheels, and sorry about my dad's argueing LOL! He's not a big car person.

I'll work on getting a video up tonight, but the problem is on my video camera you see the front wheel come up but my FPS of the video on the computer you just see it shoot sideways. Oh well everyone there saw it LOL!
