To address jay, the shop and Dyno , though very young and new we have a good group of guys together that are more than capable of doing quality work, as well as talks with tpg to do tuning there and talks with dennis on possibly learning the Evo software if he feels like it , I’m not running this claiming I’m the best or anything of that nature, simply bringing the option of an awd Dyno to this area because there really aren’t any, so if that makes me a d-bag on ur standards then so be it, take that ad a compliment

et\>all
dyno’s are for the queens, road&track is for the kings…
at a drag strip race, honda would have a better chance assuming prepped track and good tires. on the street, im going w/ the automatic rwd car that i would assume has atleast et streets if not et drags. auto wins out of the hole, and has barely enough to hold off at the stripe.
now put same auto against a rwd stick car, and lets see what happens. 135 vs c5???

anyone else feel like this is like watching a race at the special olympics?
i mean… if the honda wins, it’s still gonna be a del sol
if the chevy wins… it’s still an auto vette
I mean… in the end… they are both pretty gay cars imho.

lol I dunno Jason is hard on cars but I guarantee the last thing that will happen is him pussying out thats not his style at all. If darkstar had his dsm still at least he could make an excuse up like his triple A ran out or something.

vette on spray? should be a good match if the del sol is the del sol i was hearing about last year… somewhere in the 400whp range and was looking for 600 this year?

Yes when travis had it , it made 384whp , since then slot of things have changed and or blown up, but currently the car is making 510 whp on a bad turbo , ordering a new one just don’t know if I’ll change it before the runs, but by all means should be a good race
