I agree, thats alot of weight to move. High thirteens at a shade over 90 mph would be my guess...

You will never know until you take it to the track :!: Talk is cheap, but the time slip never lies Where did you get 425 HP from, maybe 275 :!:

Be nice. 425hp does seem high for your application. I agree, Penwell is racing the 23rd. Once you make a pass you can tell your true HP. No ifs,ands,or,butts..........My quess would be a 14.98 at 86mph.

I was trying to give the benefit of the doubt. Keep us posted on what it runs. Be like PassTime on speedtv.
