Darkstar all motor vs the 500fwhp Delsol should be interesting from a dig. The vette if on DRs should get the jump pretty hard. around 110 the delsol might start coming around the vette from a 50 roll, that decision might be in favor of the delsol ---

Cam swaps are usually not considered Bolt Ons… nor are head swaps usually… but its a loose term anyways, technically a magnacharger bolts on too lol roll race id say the Del Sol would take it ---

This is still going… DS do you have a real tune for the car yet? I know Jeff just dropped one on there so it would run, but wasent sure if you got a better one by now. I would get that taken care of first as I’m sure there are still ponies to be woken up before just throwing “nawz” at it. ---

119 trap on the car with 350whp… fuck that would be enough to take him N/A. If he can hook the 500 from a roll there is no chance. Better go big or go home on the nitrous Darky. ---

^ you hit the nail on the head dude the delsol has been very stout since day one, the issue has never been power because it makes tons of it. its blowing off the tires and bouncing off rev limiter for the first three gears from a launch thats the issue. from a roll the car gets just as loose when turbo hits. if jay can manage to put 500 hp to the ground in that little car, you’re gonna get smashed. in the mean time, darkstar you definately have the advantage. ---
