The number as delivered is fair? So because it will only run 1.10 under from the factory it's not underfactored? You put a 3 speed and converter in one and go 1.40 under without taking a valve cover off! I don't care what kind of car it is, that shouldn't be possible.
Honestly, I would get no sense of accomplishment qualifying at the top of the sheet at 1.00-1.10 under in one of these cars. Now, if you build one right and run it hard, that's good. Some people are doing that with the new cars, and I respect that, but there are all sorts who aren't.
As far as not running my car out and getting horsepower, it would be crazy to do so. I don't have the luxury of outrunning my competition by multiple tenths where won't matter if I move up a class or two. If I go 1.10 under a couple times this spring, then go to Columbus in July, and run Randi Lynn heads up spotting her 70 lbs? No thank you.
