Thanks Man. Friendly competition is a good thing.
Truth be told I would trade the Nos for your 60 ft's.

I know those 65's and 600's (renntechv12) are very fast so i am expecting that list to shuffle around a bit.

Did you guys bypass the torque limit for the tranny ?.

well sorta, the TCU wont let us go over 800lbs of torque, we have someone flying in monday from germany to see what he can do, they are expecting 600-650hp and around 850-900 tq at the wheels. We have been thinking of putting 100 shot on the car just to see what it can do lol
