Thanks Lart.

Keep in mind, that I have made MANY, MANY changes since the 533 rear wheel run.
Among them are ccomplete valve train and huge differencee in camshaft, not to mention complete revision of ignition timing.......

I am so confident about it now, I believe it will look like I was sanddbagging by promising ONLY 600 REAR WHEEL HP in 2006.

Well, that's tthe thing.
With slicks, my fresh 60% LSD s2 transaxle will not last one high boost run. It will explode, and I bet I could blow up at least one cv on the same run.
There absolutely ZERO give in my clutch rig.

One day, without warning, I will post a shot from the back of a 1/4 mile run on high boost. You guys will laugh your asses off. Wheelspin and sideways THE WHOLE WAY, with NEW Michelin Pilot Sports 275's, and a NEW very aggressive LSD diff.

had a hunch. Also can't se it with 533 HP (as advertised in signature)

had experience with 525 honest HP sub-2600lb drag car with 4link solid rear axle , 4:88 locked axle, slicks. Still could not crack into the 9's... 10.01 was it.

I would fall over if I watched a 944 IRS car manage that..... I would **** and fall in it if you can do it more than once without coming apart and scattering crap all over the track. But I'll watch

Yes my car has MUCH more than 533 HP - this is the dynamometer measurement at the rear wheels. We typically add 15% for the crank number.
At the last test, the car was well over 600 crank HP.

G is using an LS1 - that probably has more titanium than my engine.

And if 'G" and I lived on the same coast, Lart would be in heaven because we would have drama every day on Rennlist for sure....

I think you can see an accurate representatioon of what would happen to "G", in my avatar.

Guy was bummed because he was having tuning issues and the car could not get in the 6' YES 6s and YES 1/4 mile. HOLY CRAP! was pissed runnin low 7s.

I will drive by the front of Marcus at exactly 7:00 this Saturday.
When I say exactly, keep in mind my German persuasion.

....and my fuel tank will contain things that would necessitate a haz-mat placard in CT., if my car weighed 26,001 pounds.
