I should have final numbers on my car by the middle of next week, but in the meantime, here's a video of another Hellion compound boost car running the same setup that is going on my car:



Car is full weight, 4020lbs w/driver, drag radials, 3.89 gears, E85 fuel.

One of these things is not like the other. LOL!

Can't wait for our race at the Fest. We have a couple of good stang vs camaro races lined up. But I think folks are looking forward to ours the most.

Well, I can tell you that my setup will not be running mid-9's, for sure. I'm thinking maybe mid-to-high 10's.

You need TAG to video tape it... TAG so we can get that great play by play commentary

lol that math is wrong...

given 17% drive train loss it would be:

475 / 83 = 5.72289

5.72289 * 100 = 572.29hp at the crank

proof to show that math is correct

572.29 * .83 = 475.0007

so that gt500 is really making 572hp at the crank given a 17% drive train loss
