Not trying to be a dick at all...but I think he will win with little trouble.

Just get it done and let us know what happens! (I don't mind being proven wrong. )

I hate to be the one to say it, but your toast. Your making ~280rwhp and weigh a few hundred pounds less. If you had some suspension and DR's then you might be able to stay ahead with a great launch and ending it under 100, but as of now you don't have a chance IMO

Hate to say it as well, but if you win I'll eat my socks and post pictures to prove it. Disclaimer*If said driver of LS1 is 14 yr old nerd whose sole occupation is playing WOW to sell the profile.
