Ray, you said Pat Musi's class and the threat of Pontiacs. Not the class your running.
Big Difference between the
Limited rules class you run and the Open Street class.
But still....Gett'in lucky and makin rounds on others mistakes and 'consistantly' getting to the finals on ET's are two different things.
Yes it takes money or you wouldn't be asking or stating what It will take to make the # to be competitive.
I told you at the beginning it looks to be a 8.0 to 8.20 class. And it is.......already. Still lacking that 1/2 second.
As you stated, that dude got lucky to go those rounds. Try it every time? Wish him good luck.
Been there and done that in a Pontiac.
Not trying to bust your ballon, but your original topic was Competing in the Open Outlaw class and Pontiac would have a hellava time competing....... with Nitrous.
Maybe that's why JBP saw the light and moved on to turbos?
With Nitrous and open rules, bigger is better. I feel in
Open CompetitionThe only equalizer Pontiac has it the Supercharger or turbo power adder.
Race Hard and Have Fun.
