Prolly not.. would be cool tho..

170mph Sfwd is ALOT of power, a fluke, or a motor on the brink..

id go with choice C.

SPFWD-9.1-9.30s 165mph MAX (I think) turbo only IF spraying it might go up some more (To go 170mph need about 920+whp in a 2400lb car WOW )
All Motor- 9.30s
Hot Rod- High 7s low 8s(for Hondas) gotta look at the rules again to see how GM would DO prolly still really really well of course
profwd- 7.20 - 7.60s

sfwd- how fast will they go ? 164mph,once.

all motor-saw a good improvement last year, some 9.50's I think. The big hitters
like clutchmasters and Jeremy should be able to get it to 9.40-9.45. It's tight with the winners. I suspect mph will go up at least 3-4. Power will be the biggest gain over winter. I'm sure they will all be over the 400whp mark by spring.

I project Jeff to never get his car running BUT his thread will be 250 pages long and he will marry cuin9sec in New Jersey since they made it legal there!

5.90's in the dragsters?? That would be cool to see, but isn't going to happen. Also don't forget the new rules for Pro Rwd, +300 lbs, and single 86mm. That should put them in the 6.60's and slower. No more .40's. I think 6's in Pro Fwd will happen.

The motor did not melt after that pass when he went 167, it was the Map sensor that came off and he ran really lean BUT the motor survived. He made a pass after that even, it was the Valdosta GA NOPI race actually
