Your car is like a few others over the years that is faster than the sum
of its parts (which is cool).
Hear are the others that were faster than they should have been:
ChinitoWest (full wt GT700 trapping 138+)
DMK (trapping 138, even though it was lightened and he is a pipsqueak
)DIVEXXTREME: That car flat out flew, regardless of its relatively simple build (as compared to other big builds) 4.67 60-130 mph...do you know how damn quick that is ????
White Protomotive turbo "Bobby from Tulsa built": I cannot verify personally that it ran a low 10: 1/4 mile but I can tell you that its simple
K24/20G set-up is much faster than a local Speed Gallery 700 which means that it is faster than my car: I have heard from reputable sources that it is a litre bike killer
Artiza's car also

Before you tore into your car, It was quick. Since I have run the two of you I would say that with your old build he would have you by 3 car lengths from 10MPH to 150MPH. Today, it will be closer. Traction was not an issue for him. He never spun the tires and he had a passenger. You have to do the same. I will be there with my video.

Here are a few older videos that I never posted on YouTube.
The first is a Supercharged C5 Vett with 620Hp to the wheels, HPF stage 2 E43 M3 and my Turbo S Cab without the JIC Exhaust. We are going slightly up hill and the vett has an 800lb weight advantage. My car was running at 570HP (estimate). The vett gets a jump on me on the second run with an early start.

The next one shows how we manage our runs with 10 to 15 cars. All have 2 way radios and we change matchups after two or three runs.
