If you want to play that game, I will have a freind bring his Mustang. I will go out on a limb and promise nobody will beat his car...NOBODY! I will back this statement up by taking any and all wagers from ANYONE with ANY car or bike they can produce and bring to the event. He is itching to go, just does not want to be the only domestic car at an import/MB event.

I am having some wierd miss issues inbetween shifts. I finally have the money for a good tune at 9psi and if all goes well I am in.
In the video(8psi) my car is SLOW off the start due to my bad tune but it does pull like a train when the boost kicks in.

I wouldn't call it adverse. The stickier the track the better your 60' times will be. The better your 60' times the lower your ET will be. Since you have little or no wheel spin there is less track to gain higher mph. So mph will be down, but you want to compare the best ET combined with MPH. Not just MPH. Usually the best passes will have a combined excellent ET and 60'.

330' is plenty unless your over 750hp, even then these cars chassis is so well tuned from the factory that your car is well balanced and on a mean pass by the 330' mark. It's when you see wheel hop that can cause the car to lose traction down the track. I've seen the v12 biturbo's run low 11's and these cars don't flinch. You should be just fine.

.....besides, wheelspin is fun, why do you think drifting has become so popular?

There will be other fast cars in attendence (yes, over 750whp). I have alot of friends that drag race and they will be coming out for some fun.

I will get the 40 cars out, I just would like to have alot of benzes and it doesnt seem like many are very commited (noone in particular). I had 34 cars out two days ago and I didnt even try to promote for it really. Supras, turbo Z06, audis, bmws, benzes, an RX7, new GTR, new ACR Viper, etc etc

Bring whoever you want. I would like to keep it street cars only though. I know I dont like lining up next to race cars at test and tunes.

He's not a definite right now, but a solid probably.

Kevin does not own any 10 second cars that I am aware of. I know he has a Supra that runs mid to high 8's and the 6.5 second Mustang. Kevin loves money races, he does all the pro stuff, but he will drag his car out for a big money race too. I told him to come on this site and get a screen name, I don't want to be the middle man but I'm pretty sure he will race anyone for any amount of cash you want, he has pretty deep pockets, makes my money look like pocket change.
