    I make right at 500 to the wheels. It seems like most people are either around the 300 - 450whp level, or too heavy, or if they really want to get "serious" they get well above 600.

    Of course, I'm not really out looking for races all the time, I just get out and about a lot of times and don't often find someone that's a really good matchup for me.

    I prefer not to run from a dig, my car can wheelhop extremely easy, and it's just not worth the risk to me.

    I know Cobras need to be about 100hp more than c6z's to beat them. I forgot that, so I don't think I'll beat you until I have a KB/Whipple, if I don't sell my car.

    Yeah, to give you an idea.....when I was bone stock and Rick was making over 500 with his Stage IV ported blower, I would consistantly pull him by 1.5 cars or more from every speed we tried (even at speeds well below my powerband).

    On the flip side, when Champcoupe used race gas in his S2000 and ran me AFTER my mods, he was only making 450rwhp and we were dead even.

    I think the blown Ford motors make more power than anything on the road with simple mods right now. The problem is, they're in some of the heaviest cars on the road, as well. heh
