If you dynoed at 459 to the ground at 15 psi and redline at 10,500 how in the hell are you getting beat by Cobras ?

Awww...180 whole miles? You poor thing.



If I may answer for vosko, his car did make 459 at the wheels, but since then he's tuned it so rich that birds fall out of the sky behind him, so it's not making that much now.



Also, the '03 Cobra is no slouch...they have 390/390, don't they?

went from a stop and i crunch 2nd gear so it takes like 2 seconds to shift and i spun a shitload. i told the guy this. he didn't care. 2nd time i told him i want 2nd gear. so i start at like 2500rpm.........obviously i have a T78 so no power there! he has a supercharger it just went and jumped two cars. the same gap was there. he didn't pull on me. it was disappointing but in both races he had the advantage. ah well **** this 15psi crap. i'm ordering water injection. i want to see if i can 25psi on pump gas with water injection

Yes, that will help your shifting skills immensely!
