GTOGeorge,
You do understand the better the 60 foot time on the 7.4 run the less HP it shows / takes for that run. So when I reduce the weight the 6.44 run will be slower because I will be using less HP for that simulation.

Another gizmo shows -

3450 lbs @ 7.40 = 1683 horses
2350 lbs @ 6.51 = 1683 horses

2350 lbs @ 5.98 = 2172 horses

= 489 more horses needed in the stable

thats just RawData - no account for better aero , traction/downforce , etc...
but still gonna need a lil more boost under the magic hat to break into 5.9's

Really neat looking new car! Great idea using a proven engine combination in a new chassis.

Best of luck to you, we need all the fast Pontiacs we can get! There just aren't enough of us.

Driving a funny car is a lot different than driving a door car. There will be a learning curve there.

He's running an automatic......so should be as little easier.

What trans is he running George?

Power glide, the same trans that was in his GTO. Weight is 2,350 with driver.

Actually he only ran a high 7.47 I think with an under 1.20 60' time.
So what would one of your simulations be with my car?

GTOGeorge,
I had an old sim I had done about 3 years ago. I had to make a few changes to it as some data like the weight based on your signature I had was wrong.

60 Foot ET = 1.1556
330 Foot ET = 3.2795
1/8 Mile ET = 5.0854
1/8 Mile MPH = 136.8021
1000 Foot ET = 6.6549
1/4 Mile ET = 7.9935
1/4 Mile MPH = 169.0700
