Also, yes my car will go 150 mph in 10 seconds. I have over 1000 hp and will trap at about 150 mph. The car will go 9's on drag radials. I have gone 10.50 @ 137 on an inclomplete pass first time out with this motor with only a 1.83 60'. The car normally 60's in the 1.60 range. With a good launch and being able to stay in it next time, the car will go 9's @ 145-150 mph the way it sits, I have over. Don't believe it....Don't worry about it, this has nothing to do with my going 200 mph question. I am not here to BS or exagerate. I am simply stating I have a mega fast car capable of over 200 mph and want to know what tricks there are to make it handle well at that speed.  |
Wasn't saying I didn't believe you, just asking. I had a 1000+ hp street car and no way it would do that as it wouldn't hook.
As said before there's a huge difference between 150 and 200, and with your weight and c/d you may not have the power to do it. Should, but not definitely, and to even consider trying without safety equipment is foolhardy at best. Not sure how you're running mid 10's without equipment in the first place, you definitely cannot where I live.
You will definitely need aero mods. A friend of mine had a third gen Camaro with 800+ rwhp. That car is a lot more slippery than yours and it wouldn't go 200 mph at Silver State. He finally bought a car that would and was killed when a tire went down. He had
all the safety equipment available for an unlimited car in that series, and something as simple as a tire still ended his life.
