Sounds like the SVO would pull it off. I bet you could hold him off the the first 1/8th mile or so.

Coupe sounds like it's gonna be a hell of a roller, just gonna need a big motah!

Thats quite the race, sounds like the svo should pull, especially top end

I am not a huge cobra guy, but I don't think I have ever seen a dohc 4.6 with a carb on it

Well I think your 4v should make more than 300rwhp but then again w/that stall and a C4 maybe not.

If his car is not setup to run the 1/4 like yours is, I honestly think that you could take him in the 1/4 but it should be very close. With some great driving, you could run mid-high 11's. He should be trapping around 118 or so and you should be around 113? Obviously you are dead from a roll.

it really is a nice roller as far as parts are concerned but it does look the part of its nickname

w8less

see you are thinking the way i am. i think i may get him off the like and he will backhalf me like crazy

oh and you will just give me some time

w8less

see i dont know if it will make much power or not it will be just stock parts for the original mock/get to move on its own i guess we will see
