Nice runs. i agree with 83ragtop. You probably have a 100 whp advantage over this guy. He's probably only putting down around 390-400 to the wheels.

Op, do you have a built motor?

There is alot of fast cars out there and I actually cant wait to lose again haha gotta go Z06 hunting lol

there ya go, ZO6s are always fun to play with...

roush advertises the 427R as the rated horsepower it is supplied with along with the heritage of the number... meaning, roush intended to have these cars make 427BHP directly out of roush... they ended up making 435BHP though

I remember looking it up when some kid tried telling me it had a 427CI engine xD

It's more like 350-375 rwhp.

427r owners are ignorant.

Thanks guys...I knew the 427 was rated at 435 bhp same as the saleen s281 sc but saleen gets it with 4 psi where I'm pretty sure the roush is at 5-6?? As far as suspension and getting it to the ground Roush got it right.

Mamba what happened to your axle?? Sux your out of comission again, how long until your up and running again?? There's always a reason to upgrade!!
