Default Mamba vs. SubTexel

Who do you think will take this one? Hopefully in a week or two we can get this going.

The contestants

2005 H/C/I Vette
A4 with stock 2.73 gears
442/420 on 91
weight: 3200

vs

2007 H/C Charger SRT8
Stalled, Upgraded half shafts, UDP
489/? on 93
(other mods Unknown until Sub posts in here
weight: 4200

So what do you guys think? We will get all of this on a vid.
From a 20? 40? roll
From a dig up to 140?

Just seeing what you guys think the outcome may be.

This is all for fun so whatever happens, happens

The Vette has it all the way and it will get worse as speed increases. A 47 hp difference will not make up for 1000lbs and the huge difference in aerodynamics. But who knows really stranger things have happened.

He said he would do all motor first and then use the 150 in the next couple runs. Do you think the 150 would put him well over the top?

Well if Sub runs a 150 shot then its his all the way. If not then the Vette should own this one pretty easily, even with the HP disadvantage and the crappy rear gear.

Where you guys going to do the race? Highway 15 would be a great place on a late weekend day.

Yeah and I am guessing that when he tunes it to 91 it will be a lil less power too. Do lower gears have an advantage at all in races? Or is it just for gas milage basically?

I dunno where we could race. Don't have any experiences on Hwy 15. I mainly stick to the 405, 105, 110.

The 150 shot will swing things his way, but it won't be a slaughter by any means. 1000 lbs is a huge difference.
