Our track currently is 950ft, that's pretty darn good for us (personally best air i've ever ran in is 1500ft)
I think I lit his tampons fuse...no he's not thinking. He's rambling and trying to get the thread locked....that's what he does.

I mean seriously he tried for nineteen years to run a 10.7 including windowing his block but now all of a sudden because that's what he thinks my car runs he can do it... A slam dunk! It's in the bag....just doesn't have the time slip...or a block that will hold water.

slowbird, there is no race that is actually going to happen in Utah. It was a joke playing on one of you guys having him call me out.
Not worried about beating a 10.74 at any altitude. I am lighter, with more power. I mean, I race pump gas, but its not a street car. His is.
I 60' like a low 10 car right now and can hit it harder. What do you think is going to happen with 700+HP taking finger off the button at 5500 RPM ?
He would get his feelings hurt, being the big shot.

I know what will happen, with your incredible lack of knowledge as to what Paul's cars run you honestly don't stand a chance and that is the truth! I would suggest getting more info on how fast all of Paul's rides are before talking. Remember he's a street racer so his cars are meant to look very unassuming.
Hope you get your engine together soon and have fun with it.

His car is half second at least faster than that. I know his game.
9s on spray. Thing is, if I play my cards right I could dip n the 9s on motor.
He has a lot of effort in that sleeper.

With the weight of your car and the parts you have plus always running at sea level it should easily run mid'ish 9s

Wallace says I need 730 HP to run a 9.91 at 137. Thats figuring 3600lbs.
But, I have a 1050 and the Dale Cucic, not optimum. Need a 1150 to do it.
Might buy one, we will see.

This forum isn't one of those fake street outlaw shows on TV. it's a place for discussing actual racing topics.

There are a handful of you guys who monopolize the forum with your name calling and fake threats, and you chase away everyone else who may want to post here. Go do it somewhere else.
