Yes, but Justin did it at 2700# on little tires with just a handful of passes on the car.

Everything being equal small tire cars are quicker then big tire cars. YES the weight is a big factor. Are you sure Justin's car weighs that much? He is picking them up and laying them down!

Yea, but he is killing a lot of power down low to make it hook. Let him put the big tires on it and I bet it goes 3.80s with all the weight out of it which is still heavier then both of the other cars by a few hundred pounds!

He will go 80s. Lock it in.

He went a pair of 4.03s at 185 at 2700# that is with just a few passes on the car. If he puts the big tires on it and can take 400-500# out its a done deal.



Don't get all butt hurt that KRE took a few decades of blowing chit up to go a 3.99!

Agreed, it just bugs me that people write articles without doing any research these days.

Trust me, I'm a big fan of Justin, I just hate to see false info published as fact.
