If he really has 500 AWHP I think you are done from any speed. Weights for the cars are very similiar I don't see how you can overcome 100hp. The VR4s I have driven pull very well up top I have to figure one that has been modified to that level is going to pull well from a dig through top end.

true true anywho its all in shits and giggles, i just know my car is a mid to high 11 sec car, he has not ran his at the track so i don know, althought if i do loose i wont be to upset! He has 10gs under the hood and rebuilt his tranny 3500 haha. i have 3000 under the hood and stock drive train. As long as i dont get my doors blown off ill be happy!!!!

no i dont last time i went to track i had problems niether have time slips but i ran a 02 maro on the street from a 45 roll was dead even maybe pulling alittle on him and he run 11.4s all day! In all honesty im gonna loose but not by that much i think. my $3000 in mods compared to his 10g's plus haha.

Just a race it's all good. No shame in loosing to a 500AWHP VR4. I've seen similiar eclipses in the 10s but they were gutted.

Ok. Can I offer some friendly advice? Please don't take it wrong....but you're car is not an 11 second car until it has run an 11 second pass. Certainly you have the power to get there....but there is much more to running 11's than just having the power.

Good luck to you.

HAHA that is a good point i know what your saying, not hurt feeling here

i just dont think he is gonna drag me like he says he is

well the VR4's are heavy cars and i think they weigh about 3750 lbs, regardless as said above 100 hp difference is alot to overcome and no matter how much i want you to win the VR4 will pull ahead. Losing to a 500 whp car is no biggie and its pretty rare running into a car like that so at 410 rwhp your pretty much ahead of many cars. If its any help to you, youll kill my ride within the first couple of seconds, lol.

**devildogws6** · 03-24-2009, 10:09 AM

haha thanks yeah i know ill loose but its all in fun i work with the kid, when ya get into stuff like this ya gotta realize there is ALWAYS someone faster lol

Like i said before my car is quick but it aint fast!!
