Anyone know the details on that new GTO?

[dubbsy]

GTO showed up later there.. I ran him right after he teched and refused to tell me what he had done to the car...

and dammit, I'm curious...

Sounds mean
ran 13.6 @ 108 with a bunch of spin (I even out 60'd him)
figures 420HP....so he says...

anyone?

yeah.... (well was that an aftermarket hood? I was thinking that looked like the hood they put on some of them now)

108mph trap, and 13.6 doesn't equate to 420 hp...

well I'm not saying he did or didn't have 420hp.... just what he told me...

but like I say, he did spin a lot

2.350 60'... and to run a mid 13 1/4, I would expect probably atleast a 1.8-1.9 60' for a clean run.

looking at the slip I wouldn't be suprised to see the car well into the 12s if he sticks however much HP he does have.

Brian Curry ran 13.5 @ 108-109 with 399WHP yesterday.(Saleen Mustang w/Vortech) Prolly had a few more ponies due to the weather. He had a slight traction issue.

[dubbsy]

has he run it before? I know he had all kinds of traction issues yesterday, curious what it runs if it hooks.

if i remember right that about what a stock gto would run if not a bit faster, he could have been, 1 pulling your leg, 2 a really shitty driver, or 3 really bad traction

[dubbsy]

hmp.. sounded mean either way....

(I was thinking they were closer to high 13s-low 14s stock)

First time at the track with that car. Blowers been on for 2 weeks.
