    It is really easy actually when you combine different section of your timeslip...take the trap speed from a car that just blew the doors off your ride in 1/4 then take your 1/8 mile time to get your final time slip 11.xx @ 139 mph !

    a car that weighs REALLY close to 2000 pounds shouldn't be too far off meaning the power to weight ratio... Depending on the tq/hp curve...
    Back to being stock and slow

    That I know, but not an S2k. Actually even hatch back civics gutted can't spit out 135+mph trap speeds with just 410whp.
