Default Re: Ouch my car just got 9 HP!

Maybe it is a sign of the times, or the temperment of the Drag Pak owners, but most I had talked to in the past, who asked us not break the index (with the 6.1 and then the 5.7) , have now already broken it and had hp added..

So don't expect a DP owner to protect the index. I can tell you for sure that we will not protect it. It is all about going as fast as we can.

We have two new 5.7s in the build process right now, and fully expect to push the bar higher with the first one, and then raise it out of reach with the other.

Maybe we can do it... or maybe we can't, but we have new people involved along with us on the engine work, and a new driver, so don't count us out.

No more push, push push just to get to the track untested and unprepared. When we get there this time, we are going to be really good and ready.

And as for the 6.1 engines, we will get back around to that at some point (we have a fresh 6.1 block ready), but right now the 5.7 is better combo to run, and it may stay that way all the way up through A.
