Bench Race -- s/c SS vs s/c Foxbody
****DISCLAIMER -- WILL BE ON CLOSED AIRPORT RUNWAY.****
My SS: stock bottom end l99. Bolt ons, cam, everything, tvs2300 3.4" pulley, water meth. 3.45 gear. Running on pump gas with octane booster with a 35ethanol/65water mix. Hopefully boosting near 10. Easily over 600rwhp according to Ted. Not sure on exact numbers since no dyno to prove. stock suspension. full weight. vs 353 stroked 392 windsor foxbody. cammed, open heads, just about everything also. 8lbs vortech. Nasty car. Also running water meth 35ethanol/65water mix. Predicted he's running around 750rwhp ish. Took out an alpha-6 2011 GTR. Has reinforced rear solid axle, but on slippery tires. No DRs or nittos. Struggles like crazy for traction. Gets in somewhere in 3rd. Just to get idea of his power. We ran when I was H/C/I (430ish rwhp range) and I would get about 8-10 cars on him from dig. But at 130mph he would BLOW BY ME and in less than 2 seconds would have about 5-10 cars and keep pulling. Car is INSANELY powerful. He's giving me 3 cars from dig. Do I have a chance to not be embarassed again? Should I ask for more cars? He said he'll give me up to 5 cars if I want. Just want to test my new power. ***AGAIN ***This will be done on a closed airport road. No innocent civilians, minivans full of babies, or old women crossing the street will be present to be massacred.*** |

If the foxbody is pushing 750rwhp and he can get any sort of traction it is a 9 second car. With a decent 60ft it will run well into the 9s and the trap will be ridiculous.
He will also have a heck of a weight advantage. 3 cars is probably going to be close to 3 tenths in the quarter. I still say he gets you. just not as badly. |

It's a ridiculous car. Just has no traction. Especially down here. He was trapping 130+ range but that was before water meth and on a different motor. In other words, I should ask for 5 cars then lol. This isn't a 1/4 mile race. More like a mile long drag. |
