dude, I went 10.5 @ 128.8 on motor letting off with a 1.5 60' I have goin 132 on motor in shitty weather. On nitrous I couldnt hook on et streets till the top of third gear and was going 10.4@141 with a 20 mph head wind. Do you know what that feels like on et streets at 11 psi at 140 mph with that kinda of head wind? if not well its pretty scary. My car with good track prep this winter should easy go 9.7@147 just like SW did 3+ years ago, mine made more power and is lighter. I just dont want to break my car at the track in this summer heat, it will see the track this winter when we have a really nice -DA. I dont have a cage so at any track that has good prep I get kicked instantly, and I dont want to put a cage in because then my girlfriend will bitch climming in and out of it when we go on dates.

HP doesn't always win races. Esp. when the car only makes power from 5000 to 7000rpm.

It'd be a fun race to see from a roll, but from a stop the only fair race would be for Matt to stay on motor.

Maybe at Texas Jam we can see the race.

Yeah I'm 18. That would mean I was 12yrs old when I was on this website. gg @ Math. Seeing when I came on here I was already making probably close to the double the hp you make. That was in 2001..

Actually I made 821 and I doubt you make 600rwhp. I do have one of these.. And I KNOW you don't.


Check out the sticky for Texas Jam. Its on August 16th in Dallas.

As for Chris's car we do not underestimate it. It makes good power but you don't realize how fast the car your talking **** to is. LOL!

I think this thread is dumb seeing ya'll are taking **** about racing a car that doesn't even run.

In the end anyone can talk about what WOULD happen if the car was running. In this case only people with running cars should talk about racing, unless you Dallas boys think you can push that neon to a ten second pass?
