I'd imagine road racing takes place with other cars as well right? Wouldn't being in a pack deflect air away from some cars not at the head?

Can you explain... are the Torq numbers on the aftermarket HE too high also? From what I see the aftermarket HE w/ fans dropped IAT's by ~10 degrees which doesn't seem like much. I'm just not sure what the acceptable range is.

"At WOT in boost the stock tune pulls 2 degrees at 104F and 6 degrees at 128-130 with 3-4 at 125 " This to me means you would need to upgrade the H/E and change the tune to keep from pulling timing at WOT.

Also, I will add that heat soak and elevated IAT are not always the same thing. The engine might have an elevated IAT at rated power to some degree no matter what. But that is not necessarily heat soak.

I've heard that was just with longtubes, a tune, slicks, and some suspension work. That's absolutely disgustingly fast if that's accurate.

Once it's no longer stock I'm no longer interested. Back, way back, when I was 17 one of the guys was putting 9's down all day in a street legal but modded '67 'Stang. We also had a bunch of cars in the 10's and my Cougar could run low 12's so, meh.

Stock is overrated imo, but I've never owned a stock car for more than a few days

Used to mod when I was younger and kid free but no time for that now, so instead I buy a few cars for different purposes every few years. Miss building a car, maybe I'll do that when retired.
