Yea, so what, it's a 400 HP car. Still ran what you run.

>>the second car was on a down hill track<<

BS....get over it, that car will out run you any day of the week and it was using street tires. Downhill my ass. The fact is, if you really do have 800 HP, you will never be able to apply it, the ZF will not handle it. You apply that kind of power through the ZF, you'll run a 20 minute time because that's how long it will take you to push it a 1/4 mile through the trap. Friends of mine like Dennis Quella & Greg Esakof run all the power through a Pantera that is can handle and will run circles around your 800 HP.
Get a clue dude.

>>If you notice I have run over 130 in the quarter on street rubber. 3 full seconds of burnout when I launch. You will note, that the 11.8 was with the boost dropped down to a 450 level. Only 6 psi. At a full 14 psi, the car has no traction with normal tires in 1st 2nd or 3rd gear. I can do burnouts in 3 gears. As soon as I can get someone to record it, I can show you<<

Notice what ? All I hear is talk, show me something that backs up what your telling me.

>>And if you say the V8 aint fair, I will race that NSX with a Buick V6 any day!!! Can that NSX turn 8s with a 100 foot wheel stand?<<

Nope, that's because my NSX isn't a drag car.
Is this another fantasy ? How about we track the cars and see what your 100 foot wheel stand means on a road course. Bring it on. In fact bring on your 800 HP BS and lets see what it can do on a road course, that's if you can even keep it on the road course long enough to actually make it around the track.

>>I will still take the Vette over an NSX. Even if they are common. And I have had a neighbor that documented 29mpg in a 400 HP vette, and even on GMs commercial they indicated such. Remember the GM commercial talking about how many cars they get over 30 mpg and at the end they had a vette slide in and say that it only gets just under 30.<<

LOL...by all means do so.

>>I wont sell my Pantera, I will keep it for ever and be fathfull to it. I have now owned it for 20 years. Can you say that? Not many people can<<

Nope, who cares.

>>And if you doubt my car is fast, go to Vegas. You will be there right? Go to the track event. Talk to Scott, the instructor there. Ask him about Dave Doddek's Turbocharged Pantera and how fast it is<<

Yea, I'm going to be in Vegas and tracking my car. Are you ? Don't need to ask anyone, show up and let's see. Talk over the internet is cheap.

Still waiting to see this 800 RWHP dyno sheet and your 1/4 mile slip. You do have them, right ?

>>Twin Turbo 800HP, 11.80@132 so far<<

Better keep working on it.....

Come to think of it, let's see some pictures of this 800 HP car....
