Re: New Horse Power Ratings
You have to be a real pig to write a letter to get hp taken off that combination. The same motor with a smaller throttle body and less compression in a 2008 Mustang GT is 300hp.

Re: New Horse Power Ratings
I wrote about mine, I figured I had wrote about my 69 and never even got a reply, so I tried a new car. But the result was the same so no help, no damage. Am I a pig too?

Re: New Horse Power Ratings
Wow Charlie, this has to leave a mark! Gregg, are you coming to Stanton? There is a bunch of us going to the Clifford Lake Inn on Friday. Hopefully it will cool down by then and you and Charlie can go face to face.

Re: New Horse Power Ratings
No not close. That is like saying my 10.16 run in GT/J earlier this year is close to me running 9.81, not even close!
This car has never been 129 in testing or ever, just another great made up rumor. Charleys car has the MPH of a car that could go 10.70's but the 60' times are over tenth slower than our D/S camaro that goes 10.80s. If you think he has is set up to leave soft your nuts too. He is leaving over 7000rpm, that little motor just doesn't get the car moving until the back half of the track. I'm not saying it is not a underfactored combo, it is just not been as quick and fast as the rumors.

Re: New Horse Power Ratings
Mike it depends on how I do in Columbus as to whether I make it up to Stanton. I didn't know who wrote the letter to get hp taken off. Andrew and I would love to go with you all on Friday, just need a ride.

" Only those request received by June 7, 2011 will be considered during this evaluation. Any requests recieved after June 7, 2011 will be reviewed during the next scheduled evalution of 2011. "
Norwalk was run June 23 - 26. Charley wrote the request before any runs were made by his stocker, two weeks before the event. |
