Default That don't sound right...

Went to a local car show this weekend. It was pretty lame not many cars there. But there was an STi there. With a little spec sheet that said 335whp. And I talked to the guy and asked him what his times were. He said he ran a 11.9@135mph!! First of all... a trap THAT high belongs in the 10s, not a high ass 11 and not a 335whp car! He had a gutted interior. only thing in there was the driver's seat... But still...

This don't sound right. My guess would be mid to low 12s in the 115mph range.

Don't ask me the mods, because I didn't read past the hp rating lol

I asked him what was up with the outrageously high trap speed, and he said he didn't know either, but that's what he ran...

11.9 with an amazing driver, maybe. You'd need an amazing all wheel drive 1.5 sixty foot to hit 11.9 with that kinda power. The trap speed is just stupid. 550WHP Corvette ZR-1s dont trap that fast.

I've never actually raced but according to my dyno numbers. I should run 8s on street tires.

ET is semi believable. The trap is nowhere near believable. Hell, Bolt-on 3v's trap 135, so I don't see a gutted STI trapping that high either.

Yeah, he is BS'ing you on the trap, and or doesn't know what he is talking about.
